Chelsea target John Stones hands in transfer request

By Phillip Eta

Everton defender, John Stones, has submitted a formal transfer request to the club, as he tries to force a move to Chelsea.

Jose Mourinho has seen bids of £20million and £26m rejected for the 21-year-old defender this summer, but has not given up the chase for the player.


Stones had earlier told manager Roberto Martinez, that he would like to leave Goodison Park and has now decided to make it official.

In recent interviews, Martinez insisted that the player was not going anywhere, but it is understood that with this new development, Chelsea are likely to land their man.

Mourinho is keen to bolster his defence with Stones, who he views as John Terry’s long-term replacement.
