Phil Foden - Page 4 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Should be available Sunday Foden (undisclosed) should be available for Sunday's derby against Manchester United, coach Pep Guardiola said in the press conference. "The rest are fine."

Impact Foden has been training with the team during the international break and should be back available for Sunday's derby against Manchester United. This is good news for the Citizens since he will likely find back an important role in the frontline with the injuries of Omar Marmoush (knee) and Rayan Cherki (quadriceps).

Battling fitness Foden was held out from Sunday's 2-1 loss to Brighton because he was "not fully fit," according to manager Pep Guardiola, per Arthur Ferridge of The Standard.

Impact Foden has had another rough start to the season after only featuring once in the club's first three games, with that appearance coming from the bench. He was held out completely from their most recent loss, with the winger battling some fitness issues. He will now use the international break to recover fitness and hopefully be ready upon return, as the club will have to do without Rayan Cherki for two months due to a quadriceps issue.

Five crosses from bench Foden registered two shots (one on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 2-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Foden finally saw his first minutes of the season late into their second match this campaign, appearing off the bench for 16 minutes. His time on the field was met with some decent production, recording two shots and five crosses. He will now look to push for a starting role soon and return to his 2023/24 form, with way too much talent to only be a rotational option.

Returns to bench Foden (ankle) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Tottenham.

Impact Foden is back in the matchday squad Saturday against Spurs but only starts on the bench, suggesting he may still be working toward full match sharpness. He has a chance to feature as a substitute as he looks to build rhythm and earn more regular minutes in a crowded City attack. The attacker will be aiming to improve on last season's output and rediscover the level that earned him Premier League Player of the Year honors in 2023/24.

Impact Foden was absent from the opener as he worked to be fully fit before his return, but he is now trending in the right direction, as he has been cleared to play Saturday. That said, the attacker will be bidding to earn a spot in the team sheet, hoping he can secure a starting role, although that is unknown with all the talent City has brought into the attack this summer. He is coming off a down year after notching only seven goals and two assists in 28 appearances last season, looking to return to his 2023/24 form when he won the Premier League Player of the Year and rejuvenate his career.

Training in full Foden (ankle) has been spotted training in full on Thursday, according to the club.

Impact Foden was spotted training in full on Thursday after missing the season opener against Wolves on Saturday due to an ankle injury. The attacking midfielder is in a good position to be available for Saturday's clash with Spurs, although he might not return directly to the starting XI.

AUGUST 22 • ROTOWIRE

Not on team sheet Foden (ankle) is out for Saturday's match against Wolves.

Impact Foden was deemed fit for the opener but must be taking a cautious route in his return from an ankle injury, as he is still out for their opener. This is a bit surprising, as he is a quality player when at his best, usually earning at least a bench spot. He will now look to next week for a return and to see the field, although he is battling his way through a midfield that has tons of talent after a few summer signings.

AUGUST 16 • ROTOWIRE

Ready for opener Foden (ankle) has been training this week and is available for Saturday's opener against Wolves, according to manager Pep Guardiola.

Impact Foden missed the friendly against Palermo a week ago, but it looks like the issue was minor and he'll be ready for the start of the season. However, given that he's not 100 percent and the other bodies available in the squad, it's likely Foden will open on the bench. Unfortunately for him, it's unclear what his exact role will look like this season after a disappointing 2024/25 campaign.

AUGUST 15 • ROTOWIRE

Back in training Foden (ankle) was spotted in training ahead of Saturday's trip to Wolves.

Impact Foden suffered an ankle injury that sidelined him for a pre-season friendly with Palermo. It appears it wasn't an overly serious issue, as the forward is now back in training. It remains to be seen whether he's going to be fit enough to start the Premier League opener, with new signing Rayan Cherki also in contention. Foden is coming off a poor season where he scored seven goals and added two assists in 28 appearances (20 starts), seemingly losing his place in the starting XI during the end of the campaign.

Impact Foden suffered a knock to his ankle and missed the last pre-season friendly against Palermo as a precaution. The forward could be back for the season opener against Wolves on Saturday if everything goes fine this week. That said, if he has to miss the game, Savinho will likely step into the frontline to replace him.

Takes major step back this season Foden started in 20 of his 28 appearances while recording seven goals on 54 shots and two assists on 43 chances created to go along with 80 crosses.

Impact Foden brought his struggles from Euro 2024 into the league season as he struggled to reach anywhere near the form he saw during the 2023/24 campaign. The attacker would miss the first few games through injury and would take a bit of time before he picked up his regular starting role, but even once he was in his regular role, he still only saw nine goal contributions compared to the 27 from last season. That said, he even struggled to get anything going outside of his goal contributions, not being as explosive and elusive as years past. He will hope to find his legs again next season as manager Pep Guardiola doesn't appear to be ready to give up on him, as he is still a top player who holds a Premier League Player of the Season award.

Whips in seven crosses Foden registered two shots (zero on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Southampton.

Impact Foden was inserted back into the starting XI Saturday after coming off the bench in his past two outings, his first start since April 6. His effort was okay but only resulted in a draw, notching a chance created, two shtos and seven crosses. He was substituted off in the 76th minute, and City then looked to have a bit more attacking prowess, another fault in a season full of struggles for the attacker.

Returns to bench Foden (ankle) is on the bench for Saturday's clash with Everton.

Impact Foden was a late call for Saturday's game after being forced off early in the derby against Manchester United due to an ankle injury that sidelined him in their last contest. He is fit enough to feature but will return to the bench despite being a regular starter recently.

Impact Foden suffered an injury at Old Trafford and is now getting close to a full return. The attacking midfielder has been training and seems to be a true game-time call for Saturday's clash. Foden would likely be an immediate starter if fit.
