Phil Foden - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Bench option again Foden registered three crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 1-0 loss against Brighton.

Impact Foden has now appeared from the bench in consecutive league games for City, given some rest after a midweek start in Carabao Cup play. He would be limited to 11 minutes, notching three crosses and two corners taken in his time on the field. So far this season, he has been sharing time with Iliman Ndiaye on the right flank, limiting both of their values.

UCL hat trick Foden scored three goals and assisted once from four shots and three chances created in Tuesday's 5-1 victory against AEK Athens.

Impact Foden was all over the field for City on Wednesday as he had himself a match, scoring in the 34th, 65th and 76th minutes for a hat trick. However, that was not all, as the midfielder would bag a 57th-minute assist when finding Rayan Cherki. He now has consecutive games with a goal contribution, netting a goal over the weekend in league play.

Scores in win over Ipswich Foden scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 3-2 victory over Ipswich Town.

Impact Foden took advantage of a low cross from the left flank to fire a shot home from point-blank range to give City the lead. Foden was making his return to the XI after serving a three-game suspension following his red card in the derby against Manchester United. He'll compete with Antoine Semenyo (undisclosed), Jeremy Doku, Rayan Cherki and Ilman Ndiaye for playing time in the final third behind Erling Haaland.

Ready for return, could start Foden is available for Saturday's match against Ipswich Town after serving his suspension and could return to the starting XI, though that is not guaranteed, according to manager E...

Impact Foden made a strong start to the campaign as a regular in the side early on with five starts across the first six games of the season and had two assists to his name before his red card at Manchester United cut that momentum short. He served a three game ban and was unused against PSG on his return to the squad, but coach Enzo Maresca says he has been training well. With City facing a packed schedule, Foden is likely to see some starts, and that could begin as early as Saturday against Ipswich as he looks to rediscover his form. His ability to play as a number 10 or out wide makes him a valuable option, though with City's attacking ranks now fully stocked, securing a permanent starting spot is unlikely.

Suspension over Foden is no longer suspended and is an option for his club moving forward.

Impact Foden had to serve a suspension for City's 3-0 win over Liverpool on Sunday, but is now eligible to play again, set to face Ipswich Town in their next league match. He has started in three of his four appearances this season, having yet to bag a goal but earning two assists. He will likely return to a role on the right flank, moving Iliman Ndiaye back to more of a bench role.

Sent off in derby Foden was sent off for violent conduct during Sunday's Premier League clash against Manchester United and will be suspended for at least one match.

Impact Foden's dismissal leaves Manchester City without the midfielder for at least their next league match, with the length of his suspension still to be determined. Iliman Ndiaye should be among the leading candidates to enter the starting XI during Foden's absence, while Jeremy Doku could also take on a larger role if he recovers from his injury in time. Foden will be eligible to return once his suspension is served.

Creates two chances in win Foden recorded two shots (one on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Tuesday's 2-0 victory versus FC Porto.

Impact Foden returned to the starting XI after coming off the bench in Saturday's Premier League win over Coventry, producing two chances while remaining involved in City's attacking play. However, the 26-year-old was unable to end his prolonged scoring drought and has now gone 33 competitive appearances without a goal for Manchester City. Despite the lack of goals, Foden continues to receive significant opportunities across the attacking midfield positions and should remain heavily involved in the rotation.

Bags two assists Foden assisted twice to go with three shots (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Friday's 4-1 victory versus Crystal Palace.

Impact Foden was back in the starting XI Friday as he appears to have won over the role on the right flank with new manager Enzo Maresca. He would see a few chances early on to score a goal, but could not convert, with all three chances off target. However, he would put his three chances created to good use, assisting on two different goals. These are the attackers' first goal contributions of the season as he looks to return to his 2023/24 form.

Impact Foden was under a lot of pressure to start the 2026/27 season after underperforming the past two seasons, following a Premier League Player of the Season award in the 2023/24 season. However, he is set for a major role in Maresca's plans, and it was evident when starting the opener, recording two shots, two chances created and eight crosses in the win. He was active on the ball for much of the match, nearly bagging an assist in the early stages. He will look to close in on the 20 goal contribution mark this season, as that will prove his top levels are back.
