Allen has scored 20 goals in 177 appearances in all competitions since joining the Potters from Liverpool back in the summer of 2016.
The midfielder still has a year remaining on his contract at The Bet365 Stadium, but it now seems as though he could be on the move sooner rather than later regardless.
According to this latest update, Stoke are willing to let Allen leave the club at the end of this season – a campaign that has seen the 31-year-old hampered by injuries – if the right offer comes in.
But have Stoke made the right decision with that stance over the future of the Welsh international?
We put that question to some of our Football League World writers, and here, is a look at what they had to say on the issue.
