Phil Foden has agreed a new long-term contract at Manchester City.

Phil Foden is on the verge of signing a new long-term deal with Manchester City until 2028

A homegrown star, Stockport-born Foden, 22, excelled last season for both club and country and is the poster boy for City’s academy.

The new deal is expected to tie him down for six years and see him more than quadruple the basic £30,000-a-week contract he signed in 2018.
