Manchester City have reached an agreement in principle with Phil Foden on a massive new contract.
The city academy graduate is ready to pledge the best years of his career to the Manchester club and will do so by signing a six-year deal, according to Football Insider.
The new deal will see the 22-year-old get a huge pay rise, said to be around £250,000 a week, with a total contract value of around £78m.
A deal has been in place for some time, reports Footballer Insider, and the club should finalize it soon; which will bring Foden closer to Etihad’s highest-paid players, Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne.

Foden has been at Man City since joining their youth academy in 2009 and made his professional debut in 2017.
With City’s continued success, it is likely that the 22-year-old could spend his career at the club and this latest contract indicates that. Although many things can change from time to time, the Man City star is ready for great things and has shown on many occasions how he could be despite not yet being in the best moment of his career.
Foden has made 179 appearances in total for his boyhood club, posting an impressive record of 48 goals and 35 assists, and has already amassed a total of four Premier League medals at the age of 22.
