- Deal would run until 2030 and have extra year’s option
- Foden has spent his whole career with City
Phil Foden has agreed in principle a new four-year contract with Manchester City that will tie the 25-year-old to the club until 2030.
Although the formalities are yet to be completed, there are not expected to be any issues. Foden’s deal is due to expire in summer 2027.
The new contract, which has an additional 12-month option, comes with the player having lost his first-team place under Pep Guardiola. Foden was a late replacement in Monday night’s 3-3 draw at Everton.
His form has fallen away since he was a key part of City’s 2023-24 title success and won the Football Writers’ Association and Professional Footballers’ Association player of the year awards.
Guardiola has continually backed Foden to return to his best but his last Premier League start was in the 2-2 home draw with Nottingham Forest on 4 March. With inputs from The Guardian.
