“I Thought About Ending My Career”: Man City’s John StonesJohn Stones Reveals He Considered Retiring From FootballMan City Star John Stones Admits He Weighed Quitting The Game

“Last season was so tough for me that I thought about retiring. I was tired of being a professional, doing everything right, and then getting injured again and having no answers. It was psychologically difficult.”

“When an injury happens again, it would be easier to say, ‘Well, I didn’t do A, B, or C, so that’s why it happened.’ But when you do everything correctly and still get a new injury, it’s a real mental test. I hope I never go back to that state,” Stones told the BBC.
