Stones and Millie Savage met when they were both 12 years old. When their daughter was 18 months old, they decided to split in December 2018. This happened because John Stones was caught cheating on Millie.

Style of Play

Stones is a ball-playing centre-back who is well-known for his technical skill and physical presence. Teammates and coaches have lauded his ball control, defensive skills, passing range, adaptability, and vision.

“John can do things other defenders can’t – a little feint here and there, maybe a turn to get out of trouble when he has to – and that’s what will set him apart from others — the capacity to do things others can’t,” Joleon Lescott remarked of his talent. He’ll perform his job and defend effectively, but there will be times when he does something exceptional that makes you go, ‘oh, that’s why he’s the best.’

John Stones doesn’t appear to be phased by anything, and he never hides.” Kyle Walker, a Manchester City and England teammate, adding, “You don’t completely appreciate him until you play with him.” He is seldom beaten, is excellent on the ball, and is very cool and level-headed.”

He honed his ball-playing technique early in his career at Barnsley, and many credit his later improvement to Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola. His passing range has prompted parallels to Rio Ferdinand, Gerard Piqué, Jérôme Boateng, Pep Guardiola, and Franz Beckenbauer.

Later years at Everton

Stones was sent off in Everton’s 4–1 away win against Young Boys in the UEFA Europa League last 32 on February 19, 2015, after surrendering a penalty kick with a foul on Guillaume Hoarau, who went on to miss the penalty attempt.

On April 26, 2015, he scored his first goal for Everton in a 3–0 home triumph over Manchester United, heading in the team’s second goal of the game.

Stones was allegedly the subject of three proposals from Chelsea in July and August 2015, totaling £20 million, £26 million, and £30 million, all of which were rejected by Everton. Stones was said to have submitted a request to leave Everton, but this was also denied. He fouled Stoke City’s Marko Arnautovi in extended time at the end of a home encounter on December 28, resulting in a penalty from which the same player scored the game-winning goal in a 4–3 triumph.

Manchester City: 2016-2017

On August 9, 2016, Manchester City finalised the acquisition of Stones for £47.5 million on a six-year contract with a potential further £2.5 million in add-ons, making him the world’s second most expensive defender in history, trailing only David Luiz.

The news came shortly after his arrival was leaked, having been featured in City’s Champions League play-off round squad registration list, which UEFA had released on their website prior to the move’s confirmation. Barnsley gained £6.78 million from Stones’ sale to Manchester City, which was more than any transfer sum they had received in club history, thanks to a 15% sell-on clause.

John Stones made his City debut four days later, in a 2–1 home win against Sunderland, partnering Aleksandar Kolarov in Pep Guardiola’s first competitive game in command. On January 6, 2017, he scored his first goal for the Citizens, heading the winning goal in a 5–0 FA Cup third-round triumph over West Ham United at London Stadium.

He scored again on 21 February to give them a 5–3 comeback win against Monaco in the UEFA Champions League last 16, although after losing the tie on away goals, he expressed his displeasure with the team’s defence.

Stones’ performances during the season drew criticism from the media. John Stones scored twice in a 4–0 Champions League group win away to Feyenoord on September 13, 2017, including a second-minute header that was City’s quickest goal in the competition’s history.

He added another goal on November 1 in a 4–2 victory over Napoli, advancing his club to the last 16 with two games remaining. Seventeen days later, he departed from a match against Leicester City after half an hour due to a hamstring injury that would keep him out for the following six weeks.

2018-2022

John Stones had another injury while on international duty in March 2018, and Guardiola angrily disputed newspaper reports that he was considering to trade the defender in April.

He had a muscular injury in training in September 2019. Stones scored the first goal in a 0–2 away triumph at Old Trafford against Manchester United in the League Cup semi-final on January 6, 2021. He was awarded Man of the Match and received high acclaim from boss Pep Guardiola following a string of outstanding defensive efforts alongside Ruben Dias.

Stones was named Manchester City Player of the Month for December 2020 just one day later. He scored his first and second Premier League goals for City on January 17, 2021, in a 4–0 home win over Crystal Palace.

John Stones signed a new deal with City on August 10, 2021, keeping him at the club until 2026.

International Career

Debut-2016

In May 2013, Stones was appointed to manager Peter Taylor’s 21-man team for the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup.

On 13 August 2013, he made his under-21s debut against Scotland, playing the complete 90 minutes of England’s 6–0 triumph at Bramall Lane.

2016-22

He was included to England’s 23-man team for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Stones scored his first two international goals in a 6–1 triumph against Panama in the tournament’s second group stage encounter on June 24.

He became the first Manchester City player since Trevor Francis in 1982 to score for England in a World Cup final.

John Stones committed a mistake in the semi-final versus the Netherlands at the 2019 UEFA Nations League Finals in Portugal, giving possession to Memphis Depay in extra time, which led to one of England’s three goals.

Stones’ blunder was due to exhaustion, according to manager Gareth Southgate, who pulled him from the third-place match against Switzerland. He was chosen to England’s team for UEFA Euro 2020.
