Welcome To The Bridge, Chelsea To FINALLY Complete John Stones’ Signing Next Week

English premier league side, Everton have embarked on a search for a potential replacement for Chelsea-bound John Stones. The 21 year-old defender has been at the core of negotiations between both clubs, and the Blues appear now set to table a new and improved bid which Everton would find hard to turn down.

Despite initially holding that the player would not be sold, Everton boss Roberto Martinez appears to have shifted ground, and has begun preparations for life after stones. He has identified Dynamo Kiev defender, Alexandr Dragovic as the man to fill the void which would be left after Stones’ departure- should and when he eventually departs.

Dragovic was part of the Dynamo Kiev team that played against Everton in the Europa league last season, and coach Roberto Martinez sure knows what he can do. Negotiations are reportedly ongoing, and a move may be on the cards.

Chelsea also, appear more confident than usual, of their efforts to land Stones. Coach Jose Mourinho has reportedly eyed him up as a potential first-hand replacement for the ageing John Terry; and, would allegedly stop at nothing, until the player arrives his club.

As it stands, it is expected that Chelsea wrap up the deal and announce his arrival at the Stamford Bridge as soon as Monday.
