The England defender has not had his contract renewed in part because of his chequered injury record.
He hasn’t started a Premier League game since October and has made just 18 league appearances since the start of the 2024-25 campaign.
Currently, Stones has contributed 19 goals and nine assists in his City adventure, and there could yet be more silverware to come with the citizens still in the hunt for success in both the Premier League and FA Cup.
