The Lowdown: Foden set for fresh terms?
The 22-year-old has been tipped to sign a new deal for the past year, with reports suggesting that he will put pen to paper on a blockbuster contract.
Since being introduced to the first team on a more regular basis at the back end of 2019/20, Foden has gone on to become a mainstay and a crucial player under Pep Guardiola.
The homegrown ace and boyhood City fan has totalled a fantastic 48 goals and 35 assists across 170 appearances in all competitions whilst also making crucial contributions towards the Sky Blues’ recent success.
As a result, Etihad chiefs are reportedly prepared to offer bumper new terms to convince Foden to remain in Manchester.

Writing for the Irish Independent, reporter James Ducker of The Telegraph has shared an exciting update on the saga.
He claims that Foden has ‘agreed a deal’ which will more than double his current City salary to around £250,000 per week.

Foden’s love for the club is well documented, and to us it is no surprise that this brilliant news has emerged.
