Coventry have been told that “Phil Foden’s not happening”, as some bold transfer shouts are made on the back of securing promotion into the Premier League, but Clinton Morrison has told GOAL why Frank Lampard can land big names. The Sky Blues are already in the process of identifying targets that can help them to compete in the big time, with their Chelsea legend boss set to act as a recruitment trump card.

Phil Foden has insisted he is prepared to remain patient at Manchester City as he nears a lucrative new contract extension despite a challenging second half of the season. The academy graduate, who has attracted interest from across Europe, reaffirmed his status as a dedicated team player focused on helping the club secure further silverware.

Pep Guardiola was full of praise for Phil Foden after he inspired Manchester City to a 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace, moving within two points of Premier League leaders Arsenal. The England international was the architect of the win, providing two sublime assists on his first league start since March to ensure the title race goes to the wire.

Phil Foden helped keep Manchester City's Premier League title hopes alive by creating two goals in Wednesday's night's vital 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace at the Etihad, while simultaneously providing Thomas Tuchel a timely reminder of his qualities. Foden's place in England's World Cup is very much in doubt at the moment but he unquestionably made the most of a rare opportunity to start for City, as Pep Guardiola made six changes with Saturday's FA Cup final against Chelsea in mind.

Phil Foden has reportedly reached a definitive decision regarding his Manchester City future after attracting significant interest from rival clubs across Europe. Despite a recent dip in form, the England international is set to commit his long-term peak years to the Etihad Stadium with a lucrative new contract agreement.

Pep Guardiola has confirmed Manchester City are close to agreeing a new deal with Phil Foden while also expressing hope that Josko Gvardiol will extend his stay. Speaking ahead of the Premier League meeting with Brentford, the Catalan coach confirmed that while agreements are nearing completion, the final paperwork has yet to be signed.
