Manchester City's management is intensifying negotiations for a new contract with one of the team's key figures in recent years, Phil Foden. According to the Daily Mail, Manchester United are planning to extend the deal with the 25-year-old attacking player in the near future. His current contract runs until the summer of 2027, and Foden is reportedly inclined to stay with the club.
Foden was brought up in City's academy and became one of the team's most consistent and brightest players in the following years. This season, he made 14 appearances in all competitions, scoring 4 goals and providing 3 assists. The fact that his value on Transfermarkt is set at 80 million euros also shows how valuable the player is.
City's management sees Foden in an important role in the club's future plans. The team views him as a central player capable of forming a new generation around him. Local fans also perceive him as one of the club's symbols - as Foden possesses not only high skill, but also loyalty to the club.
Extending the contract can be beneficial for both the club and the player. Because Foden currently holds a decisive position in a number of tactical schemes of the team. It is said that the trust placed in him will contribute to stability and continuous development within the team.
Although an official decision regarding Foden's future has not yet been made, sources say that the negotiations between the parties are proceeding in a positive spirit. Fans are eagerly awaiting their academy graduate's return to Etihad for many years to come.
