Everton manager Ronald Koeman has included John Stones in his squad for a pre-season tour of Germany despite speculation linking him with a move away from the club.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola earlier confirmed that he is interested in signing the 22-year-old, although it could take a world-record fee for a defender to prise him away from Goodison Park.
Stones was given an extended break after Euro 2016 but returned to play half-an-hour during Everton's pre-season victory over MK Dons on Tuesday.
The England international has now flown out to Germany for two matches in Dresden as the Toffees continue to prepare for their first season under Koeman.
Romelu Lukaku, who has also been linked with a big-money move away from the club this summer, was also included, but there was no place for Oumar Niasse in the travelling party.
