He only recently did an interview to say he wanted to stay, but guess he doesn't have a choice. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...hester-city-ilkay-gundogan-pep-guardiola.html He will get more offers than the other six. I can see him back at Everton.
Bayern Munich, Milan. Or a club like that. No way does he drop down the division, he’s way too good for that. Maybe a trip abroad in a slower paced game he will stay injury free. He’d find the German, Italian and even the Spanish league easy. May even suit his game more.
I was told by a good friend of his, when Stones was still at Barnsley, that his ideal career plan was Barnsley - Manchester United - Barcelona.
I heard from a very good source that he as a predicament on his hands. Can only play 20 or 30 minutes as he needs surgery. However this is risky as it could finish his career if not successful. Maybe bull s#£t but what i heard.
I can imagine John Stones Wikipedia entry in 5 years time. In the 'Net worth' section: "Stones had £75 in his bank account as a 17 year old at Barnsley. Subsequent spells with Everton, Man City and playing as an established international for England saw Stone's personal wealth soar to the £40m mark. After re-joining Barnsley as owner / manager in 2025 following his release from Man City, Stones now has £75 in his bank account".
He isn't that stupid to invest his wealth into a football club. He could split a tanner in half when he was a young un. Top lad though. He as had a decent career as a footballer ,if he does retire.
