PHIL IN CHEAP

Phil Foden could leave Man City for less than the average UK house price

The teenager is out of contract at the end of next season and the Old Lady are pining for his signature

Alarm bells are ringing at Man City.

With Phil Foden – aka the Stockport Iniesta – still refusing to commit to a new deal there are concerns he could leave to join Juventus for just £175,000 at the end of next season.

The Old Lady are frontrunners for the signature of the 18-year-old dubbed as the future of English football, whose contract runs out in 2020.

Foden has played for the Citizens since he was six-years-old but has never cemented a solid run in the first team.

The England Under-17 World Cup winner has only played 47 minutes of Premier League football for the champions this term.
