England star finds himself without a club before Mexico World Cup clash after contract decision

John Stones, a key member of England's World Cup squad, is without a club after his Manchester City contract ended during the tournament. The 32-year-old center-back, who joined City from Everton under Pep Guardiola, has been a consistent performer despite limited playing time in recent seasons. Stones decided to leave City after a season marked by reduced opportunities, citing fitness concerns raised by Guardiola. He was included in England's World Cup squad and played in their opening match against Croatia, though he has since fallen out of favor. Stones' future remains uncertain as he seeks new opportunities, with Everton and AC Milan reportedly interested in signing him as a free agent.
