Inter is looking to the Premier League and the English National Team to strengthen its defence, and contacts with the representatives of John Stones have progressed in recent hours. The 32-year-old English centre-back is a free agent and is the primary candidate to replace Pavard, who is available for transfer. However, it is reported that Stones is not the first choice for the defence overall. Stones has 93 caps and 3 goals for England. His market value is €12.00m, according to Transfermarkt. Several other Serie A clubs, including Juventus, Milan, and Napoli, have also been recently linked with the defender.
