Roberto Martinez doesn't think that Chelsea target John Stones will sulk about Everton's decision to reject two bids from the Premier League champions for his services as he loves the club too much.
Chelsea have made two approaches to sign the 21-year-old this summer, both of which were rejected by Everton, who are determined to retain the England international.
Stones started Everton's opening game of the Premier League season on Saturday, which ended in a 2-2 draw against newly promoted side Watford.
Martinez praised the focus that Stones exhibited during his first competitive appearance for the club since news of the Blues' interest in his signature surfaced and believes that the youngster will continue to give everything for the Merseysiders' cause.
"He loves Everton. He loves the club and the team and he is an incredible professional, so I don’t think you would ever expect him to sulk.
“He will always react professionally. John is an incredible leader. He will always give everything to the club,” said Martinez.

Chelsea's offers have fallen short of Everton's valuation of the youngster so far and Jose Mourinho suggested that the west Londoners will not launch a third attempt to sign Stones last week.
