Foden signs five-year deal at Man City

Phil Foden is eying more success at Manchester City after extending his contract with the Premier League champions until 2027 on Friday.

The 22-year-old has already won nine major trophies since coming through the City academy.

Foden has scored 52 goals in 182 games since being handed his debut by Pep Guardiola in 2017.

Seven of those goals have come in a bright start to this season, including a hat-trick in City’s recent 6-3 thrashing of Manchester United.

“It’s hard to put into words how happy I am to have signed this contract,” said Foden. “It’s a dream come true.

“I’ve improved a lot in recent years and so much of that is down to Pep and his staff, who guide me every single day on the training field.

“Working with them gives me the best chance of improving even more and becoming the best player I can be.” – AFP
