Manchester City defender John Stones is anticipated to leave the club when his contract expires in June, marking the end of a 10-year tenure. Since joining from Everton in 2016, Stones has accumulated an impressive array of titles, including the Champions League, six Premier League titles, two FA Cups, three Carabao Cups, and a UEFA Super Cup. The 31-year-old England centre-back may yet add to his trophy collection with another Premier League title and an FA Cup before his departure as a free agent, as Manchester City pursues a treble-winning season. Stones' exit will follow that of Bernardo Silva, who will also be leaving the club when his contract expires on June 30.
Silva, who has spent nine years at the club, has been linked to several clubs, including Barcelona and Juventus, although no final decision has been made. Meanwhile, the future of midfielder Rodri remains uncertain, with his contract set to expire in 2027.
Rodri has expressed a desire to return to LaLiga, where he began his career, but is currently happy in the Premier League. With at least two key players set to leave and the future of manager Pep Guardiola still unclear, Manchester City is poised for significant squad changes.
