The new deal reinforces City's commitment to the academy graduate, who has made 411 appearances and scored 131 goals ​since breaking into the first team under Pep ​Guardiola in 2017, winning six Premier League titles, ⁠the Champions League and three FA Cups. “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," Foden ​said in a statement. “I can only thank the ​club, staff, teammates 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." Foden registered 10 goals ​and seven ​assists in ⁠50 appearances for City across all competitions last season, but the 26-year-old was omitted ​from England's World Cup squad by manager ​Thomas ⁠Tuchel after a dip in form in 2026, during which he failed to score and managed only three ⁠assists. Manchester City ​will begin their Premier League ​campaign under new manager Enzo Maresca on August 23 against Bournemouth. Our Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles. , opens new tab
