John Stones considered by Juventus after leaving Manchester City

Summary

John Stones is reportedly a target for Juventus as they seek to bolster their defense after he departed Manchester City. With Stones available on a free transfer after a decade at City, Juventus aims to enhance their squad following a season that ended without Champions League qualification. Coach Luciano Spalletti is considering options to strengthen the backline, including potential deals for Tarik Muharemovic and other defenders depending on Gleison Bremer's future. Stones's fitness history raises concerns as he played only nine league matches last season, but his experience could be valuable.
