Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is ready to sell John Stones this summer.
The Sun says City are willing to sell Stones this summer.
England defender Stones has fallen down Guardiola's pecking order, with the January arrival of Aymeric Laporte reducing him to fourth choice in central defence.
And while boss Guardiola has always publicly talked up Stones, it is believed that the Catalan would reluctantly allow the player to leave for the good of his own career.
Stones had been widely praised for his development under Guardiola but the City boss now wants to sign another centre-half this summer to compete with injury-prone skipper Vincent Kompany, Nicolas Otamendi and Laporte.
As Stones approaches his 24th birthday next month, it is understood that Guardiola does not feel he has improved sufficiently to make him a first-team regular.
