(Martin Rickett/PA via AP)England midfielder Phil Foden has signed a contract extension with Manchester City to 2027. Foden’s previous deal was to expire in 2024 but the Premier League champion moved on Friday to secure its home-grown talent for longer. The 22-year-old Foden has become a key player under City manager Pep Guardiola and played his part in four title-winning campaigns, collecting 11 trophies in total. “We feel he can progress further and become even better than he is today,” City director of football Txiki Begiristain said.
