Midfielder, Phil Foden has signed a new four-year contract at Manchester City until June 2030.
Foden’s new four-year contract comes amidst preparations for the new season after he was left out of Thomas Tuchel’s England squad which finished third at the 2026 FIFA World Cup this summer.
“Committing my future to City means everything to me,” commented Foden on his new contract, having came through the club’s academy to produce 110 goals and 68 assists in 369 appearances all competitions and can’t wait to start life under new manager – Enzo Maresca following Pep Guardiola’s exit.
“Playing for this Club is all I’ve ever wanted to do and it’s always an honour to wear the shirt.
“It’s not lost on me that I’ve been lucky enough to be part of a historic period with so many titles won, but we’re always looking to the future and trying to win more.
“I can only thank the Club, staff, team-mates and fans who continue to put their faith in me and trust that I give everything I can for City and I hope I’ll be able to repay you for years to come.
“I can’t wait to work with Enzo again. He was brilliant during the Treble season – someone all the players respected and loved working with. To have him back here is exciting.
“Personally, I know I’ve improved so much from working with our coaches and world-class squad and as many of the legends who were here when I first broke through move on, I am excited for the next phase of my career at this great Club.”
City’s Director of Football, Hugo Viana added that the club “is incredibly proud” of Foden and how he has represented the club’s academy in his footballing journey.
“He represents everything good about our Academy. He is a unique talent, and his creativity is a joy to watch.
“But none of what he has achieved would be possible without the focus, dedication and humility to work hard in every moment and absorb all of the knowledge available to him through our coaches and players.
“Given Phil joined City at the age of nine, his continued success is one that is celebrated in every corner of our Club from the Academy staff who helped develop him right through to the City fans who have backed him throughout.
