John Stones' Wage Is As Ridiculous As His Transfer Fee

Following a UEFA gaffe, Manchester City eventually unveiled their latest signing in the shape of John Stones.

The England international moved from Everton to City for a whopping £47.5 million penning a lucrative six-year-contract.

Just how lucrative?

Well, according to Dutch outlet De Telegraaf, the 22-year-old defender is set to rake in around £7 million per season.

Pep Guardiola has been splashing the cash on young talent, as he finally lands his man despite new Everton boss Ronald Koeman best efforts. It's believed the Dutchman persuaded Stones to remain at Goodison in order for him to continue his development, even offering him an improved contract.

Though, those attempts ultimately were in vain as he was eager to link up with Pep's revolution at City.

Stones and Co. kick-off their Premier League campaign this Saturday against Sunderland at 5:30pm.
