A gift for the Old Lady! Juventus set sights on England's defensive leader

The transfer market might have a few surprises in store before the new season kicks off.

Details: According to SkySports, Juventus are considering a move for England international defender John Stones, who became a free agent this summer after leaving Manchester City.

The 31-year-old centre-back's contract with the Citizens has expired, making him available on a free transfer—a status that instantly makes him one of the most sought-after free agents of this transfer window.

The Turin club is closely examining the prospect of bringing in the experienced central defender. If negotiations are successful, Juventus could significantly strengthen their defense without spending a penny on a transfer fee.
