PHIL Foden is one of the best players in English football.
But who is he and what is the Manchester City player’s net worth?
Who is Phil Foden?
Phil Walter Foden is an English professional football player.
He was born on May 28, 2000, in Stockport, England.
Foden plays for Manchester City and the England national team as a central midfielder.
He has been with City since he was four years old, working his way up from the youth team to the senior side.
The number on his City shirt is 47 – and for England he is No 20.
His Man City number is a tribute to his late grandfather Ronnie, who died at the age of 47.
Foden is in a relationship with his girlfriend Rebecca Cooke.
They have two children together and are now expecting their third child.
Their son Ronnie was born in January 2019, followed by a girl in 2021.
Foden said about the birth of his son: “I was there for the birth.”
“I walked out of the room, gave it a little tear and then went back in like nothing happened,” he added.
The arrival date of their latest has not yet been revealed and it is not clear how far along Rebecca is.
The couple recently threw a lavish baby shower to mark the occasion.
How much is Phil Foden’s salary per week?
Foden earns £200,000-a-week for Manchester City as of May 2023.
He earns a dizzying £11.7million-per-year after his fortune rose by £1.4million in a year.
His off-pitch earnings come on top of his Manchester City wages.
He signed a five year contract with the club in October 2022.
Foden joined Manchester City’s senior team in November 2017.
I really like fishing, so when people find out they say: ‘What a weird sport to enjoy’. They don’t understand why you enjoy it.

In December 2017, Foden became the youngest English footballer to be in the starting eleven in a Champions League game.
He revealed in an interview that his hobby off the football field is fishing.
Foden said: “I really like fishing, so when people find out they say: ‘What a weird sport to enjoy’.
“They don’t understand why you enjoy it.
“I think it’s the perfect hobby to rest your legs and have some down time.”
What is Phil Foden’s net worth?
Foden’s net worth is approximately £10million as one of the highest paid players in the Premier League.
Figures from his company Rondog Sports Limited revealed he made £2million in a year from his image rights alone.
He raked £165,000 a month to the end of August 2020.
Foden was just 14 when he landed a sponsorship deal with Nike.
He also has deals with Hugo Boss and jewellery firm Cernucci.
A footie source said: “Phil is as canny off the pitch as he is on it Fame and fortune came to him early, but he has a wise head on young shoulders and is making sure his future — and that of his family — is gold-plated.”
The star has 10.6 million Instagram followers and his son Ronnie has 3.6 million fans on the site after his parents set up his page.
The source added: “Firms are really keen on working with Phil and his family, and that is only likely to increase after Euro 2024.
“He is a key part of Gareth Southgate’s team, so if England do well, that will bring him a whole new audience.”
What car does Phil Foden drive?
Foden only passed his driving test in December 2023.
The car he has been driving is the Volkswagen all-electric hatchback, the ID.3.
They can cost up to £40,000, and come with a 150kW electric motor powering the rear wheels. But it won’t compare in speed to the Lamborghinis or Ferraris decorating City’s training complex.
The ID.3 reaches 0-60mph in around 7.9 seconds, but only has a top speed of 99mph.
