Man Utd and Chelsea target John Stones to leave Everton, fans warned
JOHN STONES is destined for a top European club, Andy Gray has warned Everton fans.
John Stones is being tracked by the top clubs in the world, says Andy Gray
The England centre-back was the target of three bids from Chelsea last summer, Express Sport understands.
And Manchester United have also reportedly shown interest in signing the highly-rated young defender.
“If I’m Manchester City, I’m saying: ‘who is the best young British centre-back right now?’ By a country mile, for me, it is John Stones, so why wouldn’t any club be interested?
“If Everton can’t give him Champions League football, which looks unlikely this year, then they are going to have great difficulty hanging on to John Stones sadly.”
