Description:
Foden is the inspiring biography of Phil Foden — England's silky, Stockport-born midfield maestro and one of the most naturally gifted footballers of his generation — part of Matt and Tom Oldfield's number one Ultimate Football Heroes series. Spotted by Manchester City's academy at a young age, Foden was nurtured through one of football's most celebrated youth systems, learning his craft under the demanding eye of Pep Guardiola. Breaking into one of the most star-studded squads in Premier League history was no easy feat, yet Foden's dazzling technique, vision, and footballing intelligence made him impossible to leave out — earning him the remarkable distinction of being named Premier League Young Player of the Season in consecutive years. Written in the series' signature fast-paced style, this is the story of a true English generational talent.
