Following an injury sustained against Everton, 29-year-old Manchester City player John Stones has returned to full training.
Stones suffered the injury during a challenge against Everton’s Beto, who was deemed offside after a clear-through goal attempt.
Despite the linesman’s delayed flag, Stones had to be substituted during the match and subsequently missed three games against Newcastle United, Sheffield United, and Huddersfield Town.
With a season marked by injuries, Stones, who earns £250,000 per week, resumed full training during the current Premier League winter break and is expected to play in the FA Cup’s fourth round against Tottenham Hotspur.
His return is seen as a significant relief for manager Pep Guardiola, providing tactical solidity and allowing for a more stable defensive setup.
