England defender John Stones is in advanced talks with Inter Milan about joining the Italian side on a free transfer. The centre-half became a free agent at the end of June after leaving Manchester City.
Stones, 32, has reportedly attracted significant interest from clubs across Europe, including Chelsea and Juventus. However, Serie A champions Inter have held positive discussions and are understood to be leading the race to sign the Premier League and Champions League winner on a two-year contract.
During his time at Manchester City, Stones made 295 appearances after joining from Everton in 2016 for £47.5m. He contributed to City's success, which included six Premier League titles, the Champions League, and two FA Cups, among other honours. The former Barnsley defender has also earned 93 international caps and was part of the England squad that finished third at the World Cup.
