John Stones joins Inter Milan on a free transfer after leaving Manchester City at the end of last season. Multiple outlets report that Inter, the Serie A champions, confirm the move after Stones’ contract expires. BBC News and others state he signs a two-year deal with the Italian club. Sources also describe his decade-long spell at Manchester City, highlighting his role during the club’s successful Guardiola era, including six Premier League titles, multiple domestic cups, and a Champions League win.
Several reports say Stones left City as a free agent and that he is 32. They also note that his later seasons at Manchester were affected by injuries, limiting his Premier League appearances. Internationally, outlets mention Stones’ involvement with England, including participation in the recent World Cup, where he plays multiple matches and helps the team reach the third-place finish.
One report says Stones could be available for Inter’s season opener as they defend the Scudetto against Monza on August 22 at the San Siro. Another outlet adds that the transfer follows interest from other clubs, while Stones’ final destination is Inter.
