Phil Foden 'to remain at Manchester City next season'

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola will reportedly not allow Phil Foden to leave the club on loan next season.

Foden, who turned 18 last May, has made 23 first-team appearances for City during the 2018-19 campaign.

Newcastle United, Southampton and Bournemouth all reportedly attempted to sign the teenager on loan during the January transfer window, but the Citizens turned down the interest.

There had been suggestions that the Englishman could spend next season away from the Etihad Stadium to further his development, but according to The Mirror, Guardiola wants to keep the attacker in Manchester.

Foden, who has made 10 Premier League appearances this season, has a contract with the English champions until the end of the 2023-24 campaign.

The player was an unused substitute in City's 3-2 win over Swansea City in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup on Saturday night.
