After Manchester City's change of hands, the unexpected removal of stars from the infrastructure was appreciated by football fans. Phil Foden shines by proving himself every day.
Phil is just 22 years old. British. Born in Stockport. He has spent his life with Manchester City, from the bottom to the professional. His height is 1.71. He is of short stature for midfielders, but Pep Guardiola's playing style in Manchester City and Foden's technical capacity does not create any handicaps. Fans have already attributed him to being a flagman.
Philip Walter Foden (28 May 2000) is an English international footballer who plays as a midfielder for Manchester City. Foden gained media attention after receiving the FIFA U-17 World Cup Golden Ball award in 2017. He received the BBC Young Athlete of the Year award on 17 December 2017.
Sometimes, no matter how fanatical, fathers cannot influence the team their children support. Father Foden also suffers from this condition. Plus, he's a Manchester United fan! A large part of the family was also a supporter of Manchester United, but little Phil has had a heart for the blues since the years when the Manchester City club was not sold and had great success.
Now let's move on to the father-to-son name arrangements. Phil Foden's father: Phil Foden. Father and son have the same name and surname. As such, they called little Phil Ronnie in the family, and almost no one called him Phil. When son Phil Foden turns 18, he has a son with childhood sweetheart Rebecca Cook, and this baby's name is Ronnie.
He loves street football. Big football clubs usually don't allow such things to avoid risking injury to their players, but Phil Foden has obviously convinced some executives. If there is a goal and a soccer ball wherever he goes, he is directly involved in the game and participates in the games. Of course, it is a risky habit for a football player who is part of an industry where millions of euros are flying, but that's passion...
Pep Guardiola, who polished a football player like Messi at an age that could be called a child and made the comments as the best in the world, speaks of Phil Foden as "the most talented player I've ever seen". What did Messi think when he heard this comment? Between us, Pep exaggerated the situation and said, "I wouldn't sell it again if they offered 500 million euros".
In Manchester City's legendary 2011/2012 season title, which came at the last second, Phil was the ball catcher right behind Aguero as Kun Aguero scored the title goal in the title game. Now he plays in the field behind Kun Agüero. Phil has all the codes of Manchester City.
He made his name in the Guinness Book of Records as the football player who became the Premier League champion at the youngest age. We can say that it has improved itself in all parameters. His market value, which was 5 million euros at the beginning of his career, increased 12 times when he was just 20 years old. To be honest, even 60 million euros is a very small price for him.
