Answer

Yes, Stones began his career as a defensive midfielder at Barnsley. Predominantly right-footed, he was adept at playing the ball out from the back, which led to his initial deployment in a deeper midfield role. His defensive awareness, positional sense, and ability to read the game were evident from his early days, allowing him to excel as a centre-back later on.
