Stones set for end-of-season talks over his future, admits Guardiola

John Stones is set to make his first Premier League start for Manchester City since January, but with no guarantees about his future at the club.

The England international has been playing catch-up since an injury forced him to miss the early preparations for the Premier League's return from the coronavirus-enforced suspension.

City boss Pep Guardiola revealed he will start the game against Newcastle at the Etihad Stadium, but refused to be drawn on his future amid possible interest in the defender from Wednesday night’s visitors as well as former club Everton.
