The reason for Phil Foden’s omission from the Manchester City squad in their Premier League match against Nottingham Forest has been revealed.
Foden has been in great form for City this season – producing 16 goals and seven assists across 31 top-flight games – and has been lauded for his performances, with some tipping him to be named Premier League Player of the Year 2023-24.
He was widely expected to start against Forest on Sunday as Pep Guardiola’s side continue to fight Arsenal and Liverpool for the Premier League trophy.
Foden scored twice in a 4-2 victory at Brighton in City’s last top-flight fixture leading to confusion as to why he wasn’t in the squad at all for the Forest clash.
