John Stones has struggled with injuries this season and there his concern that he will be able to win his place in the Pep Guardiola team, with his old club interested to bring him back
Everton is ready to portray Manchester City about the possibility of bringing John Stones back to the Merseyside Club.
Stones, who has been a crucial figure under Pep Guardiola, has been plagued by injuries for the past two seasons and has not played since he has undergone surgery to repair a hamstring tear he sustained in February.
City signed young center-backs Abdukodir Khusanov, Vitor Reis and Juma Bah in January and are also great admirers of Toffees star Jarrad Branthwaite.
Stones has only passed on his contract of £ 250,000 a week for a year and should take a payment put to re -link with David Moyes.
But the asking price of City is unlikely that it is priceless and they are aware that the defender regularly needs football to insist in a place in the World Cup team of England next summer.
Stones arrived from Everton in a £ 50 million deal in 2016 and won six Premier League titles.
Guardiola sees him as the best ball game defender at Etihad, but there are serious questions about whether stones can handle the schedule of playing every three days.
He only made 13 starts this season and his campaign was terminated when his hamstring flared up in the defeat of Champions League against Real Madrid.
Moyes was Everton's manager when they signed Stones from Barnsley in 2013 for £ 3 million.
He played 95 games for the Toffees for three seasons and could have left the club in 2015 for Chelsea, only to reject three bids from the blues, with the third of those who entered £ 30 million.
Stones, who turned 31 last Wednesday, won 83 caps for England and his country for the first time in the 2-1 UEFA Nations League-Lader against Greece in Wembley in October last year.
