John Stones, one of the most experienced central defenders at Manchester City, one of the current Premier League giants, may leave the team at the end of the current season. The future of the player, who has been playing confidently in the Citizens' defense for many years, remains uncertain.
According to TEAMtalk, his former club Everton is showing serious interest in the 31-year-old English player. The Merseyside club intends to bring the experienced defender back to their ranks and is waiting for a good opportunity.
According to the source, Everton's management plans to sign Stones as a free agent during the summer transfer window. It is known that his current contract with Manchester City expires during this period.
As a reminder, John Stones moved from Everton to Manchester City in 2016 for €55 million. Since then, he has become one of the team's key figures, playing an important role in winning many trophies.
However, recently, the defender's susceptibility to injuries has seriously affected his playing practice. In the current season, he participated in only 15 matches in all competitions. This began to cast doubt on the player's position in the starting lineup.
If the transfer is successful, it will be not only a new challenge for Stones but also a symbolic return to a team that has just started its career. Now the only question is - will City let him go and will Everton take advantage of this opportunity?
