John Stones Announces Summer Departure from Manchester City

England defender John Stones will leave Manchester City at the end of the season, bringing an end to a highly successful decade-long stint at the club.

Stones, whose contract expires this summer, has made 293 appearances since joining from Everton for £47.5m in 2016. During his time at the Etihad, he played a key role in City's dominance, helping the team secure six Premier League titles, the Champions League, two FA Cups, five League Cups, and the Club World Cup.

Reflecting on his time at the club, Stones said, "I lived all my dreams. It's been an incredible journey, and I'm grateful for every moment."

Further details on his next move are expected in the coming weeks.
