LONDON (Reuters) - Stoke City manager Mark Hughes has agreed a new contract until 2018 and predicted a bright future for the club after confounding the gloomy predictions that were made when he took over two years ago.

Hughes joined Stoke in May 2013, replacing fellow Welshman Tony Pulis who had turned the club into an established Premier League team in his seven years at the helm.
