Nothing yet, we all thought we were waiting for the CAS decision - it might be agreed in principle and signed at end of season perhaps. Peps showing trust in the lad by playing him. Cannot say fairer than that. I suppose Garcia is going to ask - if we sign 2 centre backs where does it leave him? If say Laporte, Ake, Koulibaly and him were our 4 centre backs and Stones and Ota were shipped out.i thought he had just agreed a new 40k a week deal at city?

John Stones Playing career for us 2016– Manchester City 85 (0)
In 4 years he has played 85 games, how long do you have give him?
Time up, get what you can for him and move on.
Absolutely spot on.I've seen people say Kompany is past it. Aguero past it/not able. Ferny wasn't good enough when pep came. Walker last season was a liability. Yet Pep sticks by them, and they have always given back in spades eventually. I think Stones is worth it , he loves the club , he will fight for us if they stick by him.
Forget the fans. It seems like Stones has already been written off by the man who actually matters, Pep. There is clearly truth in the reports that we want 2 CB's: Koulibaly and Ake.
If those go through, it's over for Stones. He's done. And he probably knows this.

I said that Stones was done when Pep dropped him from the derby and explained his selection pre-match as "needing players with character" and I don't think he's ever won Pep back.
