Fight on two fronts for the signing of Phil Foden in the summer

Manchester City could take an unexpected turn in their sports project and accept the departure of Phil Foden in the upcoming summer transfer window. The possibility of parting ways with one of their biggest stars has piqued the interest of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, two clubs willing to compete for his signing, as reported by Football 365. The operation won't be easy, as the English club would only be willing to negotiate if they receive an offer around 150 million euros.

Foden, named the best player in the Premier League in the 2023-24 season after being instrumental in City's fourth consecutive title, has not been able to maintain the same level this season. His inconsistent performance post-Euro has raised doubts within the club, and Pep Guardiola is open to making changes to his squad for the next season.

Manchester City aims for a major sale

The midfielder is not the only name on the list of potential departures. The club is also assessing the continuity of key players like Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva, in an attempt to rejuvenate their squad and make room for new signings. Among the options City is considering for potential replacements, Florian Wirtz and Charles De Ketelaere stand out, as they could bring freshness to the midfield.

Bayern Munich sees in Foden an opportunity to strengthen their long-term project, while Real Madrid, always attentive to top stars, might make a move for the Englishman if they believe he fits their plans. With two European giants in the race, Foden's future seems increasingly distant from the Etihad, although it all depends on City's willingness to finalize his sale.
