John Stones said he had lived "all my dreams out" as he announced on Tuesday he would be leaving Manchester City at the end of the season after 10 trophy-laden years at the Etihad. The defender, 31, joined City from Everton in 2016, becoming manager Pep Guardiola's second signing, and has made 293 appearances to date, scoring 19 goals.
The England international has won six Premier League titles and the Champions League among multiple trophies and there may be more silverware to come this season, with City chasing a domestic treble. Guardiola's men, who have already won the League Cup, are battling with Arsenal for the Premier League title and will face Chelsea in next month's FA Cup final.
