Phil Foden was regarded as one of the best talents in football, a very pressurising tag to have, but he has more than lived up to his hype. The youngster has wreaked havoc in the league in the 2023/24 season, scoring 16 goals and getting seven assists to his name in the Premier League already. He is all but set to win the Premier League Player of the Season award ahead of the likes of Erling Haaland, Bukayo Saka, and Ollie Watkins. This goes to show just how key a player the English youngster has been for Manchester City this season.
Phil Foden has also represented England since 2020. After the season he has had, he will surely be one of the starters in the England squad playing in the 2024 Euros. If Foden ends up doing well at the Euros with England, that, alongside his success with Manchester City this season, will surely help him finish very high in the 2024 Ballon d’Or rankings, which will be a very big achievement for a player of his age.
While the talented youngster is still just 23 years old, he has reportedly already accumulated a net worth of over £10 Million. He has accumulated such a high net worth through earnings from Manchester City as well as brand endorsements he has received. The player has a very lucrative boot deal with Nike which sees him wear the Phantom GX SE while playing for both Manchester City and England. He also has deals with brands such as TCL Mobile & Stat Sports. Such deals, along with his weekly salary, have helped him accumulate a net worth of over £10 Million already.
