SOL CAMPBELL reckons Everton defender John Stones reminds him of a young Alan Hansen.
Sol Campbell says John Stones reminds him of Alan Hansen
The England international's performances over the past couple of seasons has seen him become one of the most sought-after defenders in the Premier League.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United have all been credited with an interest in the £50million-rated man, who joined the Toffees in January 2013 for £3m.
"He reminds me of Alan Hansen, the way he plays," Campbell told 888sport. "He is a very good defender but he might have to tweak his game because there are times to play and times not to play.
"He has the attributes to go all the way but he has to tweak his game not just for the Premier League but moving forward into international level where he can easily be playing for the next five to ten years.”
