Man City Set to Finalize Phil Foden Agreement Soon
Phil Foden is poised to finalize a new agreement with Manchester City as his stellar performances continue this season. Following a noteworthy goal in the team’s 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace on December 14, 2025, Foden has accumulated 10 goals in 21 appearances, showcasing his return to top form.
Foden’s Contract Situation
Foden’s current deal is set to expire in June 2027. As negotiations for a new long-term contract intensify, it has been reported that Foden could become the second-highest paid player at Manchester City, after Erling Haaland. Haaland earns approximately £500,000 per week after extending his contract, which runs until 2034.
Expert Opinions on the New Deal
- Keith Wyness, former Everton CEO, noted the potential of Foden’s new contract significantly boosting his earnings at the club.
- Financial adviser Stefan Borson emphasized the importance of securing Foden’s services, citing his recent performances as a critical factor in the negotiations.
Borson suggested that Foden already ranks among the top earners at City, and a new contract would reinforce his status within the team hierarchy. He added, “It’s critical when he’s playing back to this sort of level that he’s re-signed, and I’m sure that will happen.”
Foden’s Contribution to the Team
Since making his debut in 2017, Foden has achieved impressive statistics: 110 goals and 65 assists over 340 appearances. This season, he struggled initially but has since found his rhythm, scoring six goals in his last four Premier League matches.
With Manchester City currently two points behind Arsenal in the league standings, Foden’s contributions are essential as the club aims for another Premier League title. The team has secured four consecutive league victories, reinforcing their competitive edge.
