"Foden has been out of sorts for some time now, though of course he has generally been one of City's best players during the Pep Guardiola era. The 25-year-old is a classy performer on his day, combining skill and intelligence to make him a great all-rounder in a variety of attacking roles."
"Still, Foden will have just a year left on his contract this summer, even if the Athletic suggest it's still inconceivable that he wouldn't be offered a new one. Foden is surely coming up to a crucial moment, though, as he needs to up his game to show he deserves good renewal terms, as well as a place in Thomas Tuchel's squad."
"For the moment, though, Foden has just ten goals and five assists so far this season, and, crucially, no goals and only one assist in his last 17 appearances in all competitions. City really need Foden to rediscover his best form as soon as possible as they look to stay close to Arsenal in the Premier League title race."
Phil Foden, Manchester City's 25-year-old attacking midfielder, faces a crucial period despite being offered a new contract. Though historically one of City's best performers under Pep Guardiola, Foden has struggled recently with just ten goals and five assists this season, and no goals in his last 17 appearances across all competitions. With one year remaining on his current deal, he must improve to secure favorable renewal terms and earn selection for England's World Cup squad under Thomas Tuchel. Foden's career statistics show 110 goals in 357 City appearances and six Premier League titles, but his England record remains modest with four goals in 47 caps. Manchester City urgently needs him to rediscover form as they pursue Arsenal in the Premier League title race.
