Weren't they meant to have looked at Stones a while back?I have just had a horrible thought about this...
Like Barcelona can see some advantage in having a decent relationship with Everton.....
If Stones did leave would find it marginally more palatable for him to go to Barca after a great Euros than to Chelsea where would have to see him every week in the wrong blue shirt. Would be the pinnacle for him professionally as well and he seems such a wonderful lad who you want good things to happen to.
