Manchester City is bracing for the departure of key defender John Stones, who is expected to leave the club as a free agent this summer. The 31-year-old centre-back, a pivotal figure in City’s recent successes, will reportedly see out the remainder of the season before seeking a new challenge.
Stones, who has made history with the club during his tenure, is keen to contribute to the team’s ambitions until June. His impending exit marks a significant shift for Pep Guardiola’s squad, with highly respected transfer expert Fabrizio Romano also indicating that midfielder Bernardo Silva is expected to leave in the same window.
The departures of both Stones and Silva would represent a considerable rebuilding task for the reigning Premier League champions ahead of the next season.
