set to battle it out to sign £50 million-rated John Stones in
the summer, according to the Daily Mail .
The Everton defender was the subject of a £38m bid from
Chelsea last year, which the Toffees turned down.
But a number of top European clubs are set to renew their
interest at the end of the season. Rafael Benitez reportedly
asked Madrid to pursue the centre-back before his sacking.
Real are hoping their transfer ban is lifted or at least delayed
until January 2017 but will face competition for Stones from
the likes of City, who have struggled defensively in the
absence of Vincent Kompany this season.
