FC Manchester City News: John Stones is expected to miss England’s forthcoming Euro 2024 qualifier against Ukraine, adding to Gareth Southgate’s defensive worries.
Stones, a vital member of both the national team and Manchester City, is out until September with a minor hip injury. With Tyrone Mings also sidelined for a substantial period of the season and Harry Maguire’s return to Manchester United still up in the air, this news just makes matters worse for Southgate.
Stones has missed recent Manchester City games despite taking part in the Community Shield. Stones won’t be available until after the international break, according to Pep Guardiola. Given the significance of the upcoming Euro 2024 qualifier, this defeat raises concerns about England’s defensive line-up.
Guardiola also shared his perspectives on Manchester City’s contract and transfer talks. Kyle Walker seems to have decided to remain with the team, and a contract extension is on the table. In an effort to keep Bernardo Silva on board beyond the two remaining years of his contract, the team is also eager to secure his future.
