Gallas Urges Chelsea to Sign John Stones for Xabi Alonso’s Defence
Former Chelsea defender William Gallas has urged the club to pursue John Stones, describing the Manchester City defender as an ideal addition to Xabi Alonso’s backline. Gallas believes Stones’ experience, Premier League and Champions League pedigree would make him a valuable signing. He also noted that Chelsea could avoid paying a major transfer fee if Stones is available as a free agent. The 32-year-old featured prominently for England during their run to the World Cup semi-finals, despite an injury-hit club season. Arsenal and other leading European sides have also been linked with the defender.
