Barnsley boss Hill urges Chelsea target Stones to stay

Barnsley boss Keith Hill has urged John Stones to forget about interest from Chelsea.

The young fullback is a £2 million target for Chelsea.

"There probably are rumours but to me it wouldn't be to his benefit because is he really going to play there?" Hill told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"It would be the wrong move for him at this time. We've had no contact from them at the moment."

Hill added: "It's in his best interests to stay here and continue his development.

"He is a player who can go all the way because he's grounded, he's got good football intelligence and he wants to improve."
