Est. Return 9/14/2025
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Foden struggled to replicate his 2023/24 season, seeing his minutes and overall production decline last campaign. He struggled to return to fitness after Euro 2024 and that was just the start of it. He finished with seven goals and two assists, a far cry from his 27 goal contributions the prior season. Despite playing for City, he may be one of the more speculative fantasy plays entering the new season. His upside can only be matched by some, but given the new additions to the squad and his eventual benching last season, he has a wide range of outcomes in 2025/26.
Battling fitness
Foden was held out from Sunday's 2-1 loss to Brighton because he was "not fully fit," according to manager Pep Guardiola, per Arthur Ferridge of The Standard.
ANALYSIS
Foden has had another rough start to the season after only featuring once in the club's first three games, with that appearance coming from the bench. He was held out completely from their most recent loss, with the winger battling some fitness issues. He will now use the international break to recover fitness and hopefully be ready upon return, as the club will have to do without Rayan Cherki for two months due to a quadriceps issue.

In contention for Saturday
Foden (ankle) is an option for Saturday's match against Tottenham, according to manager Pep Guardiola. "Phil, in the last game he was out but for just the reason why - a lack of training and rhythm, and they didn't travel to Palermo and the other guys were doing it all through pre-season. He was not [ready] for 90 minutes against Wolves, but they were ready and of course they are ready for tomorrow."
