Manchester City defender John Stones could be on the move this summer after being unhappy at the club.
Football Insider says that in the upcoming transfer window, Bayern Munich may try to sign the “unhappy” Man City defender Stones.
The defender's situation is closely monitored by the Bavarians, as his former team-mate Vincent Kompany may make a bid to sign if he succeeds Thomas Tuchel.
Former Man City defender Kompany has held talks with the German giants to become their new manager, as confirmed by another report from Football Insider.
Stones has been a key player for the Premier League champions in their success under Pep Guardiola.
The defender has been consistent at the Premier League club, often playing in midfield in a different role.
He won the Premier League for the sixth time in 2023-24 but due to his lack of playing time, he is reportedly unhappy at the club.
In the last three months of the season, the defender started just one game for the Premier League champions.
Due to the lack of playing time in the team, he is worried about his position in the England national team.
Gareth Southgate is relying on Stones at full-back and Harry Maguire, with the full-back still worried if a lack of playing time could cost him a starting spot at the Euros this summer.
Bayern Munich signed Harry Kane and Eric Dier, two English stars in the recent transfer windows.
By moving to the Stones, he could be part of the English team in Munich.
The defender currently has two years left on his contract at the Etihad Stadium and there has been no indication of a new contract.
Man City should keep John Stones
The 29-year-old defender has been a member of the Man City squad and the club should extend his stay.
He has shown time and time again with his performances that he deserves to start in Guardiola's team.
Having the ability to use many things is the key as this defender looked comfortable playing in different positions during his time in the team.
Kompany's imminent arrival at Bayern Munich could strengthen the German club's interest in the player.
