Coventry defender Robert Page was a friend of Asaba's at Sheffield United and says: "The situation at Stoke has got a little bit petty between Carl and his chairman.
"He was told one minute he can go on a free and then the next they are asking for a silly fee. If he is not going to play, why not let him move?"
Last week Asaba said: "I am not in the manager's plans and that's fair enough, there's certainly no hard feelings towards him or the club in general. It's just a case of cutting our losses now.
