Phil Foden is an English professional footballer. Born on May 28, 2000, in Stockport, Greater Manchester, Foden is an attacking midfielder for Manchester City and the England national team. He came up through City’s academy and didn’t just knock on the first-team door — he kicked it down. By 17, he was already making his senior debut under Pep Guardiola, a manager who doesn’t hand out praise unless you earn it. That should tell you something.

What makes Foden stand out isn’t just his silky left foot or how he glides past defenders — it’s his brain. He reads the game like someone twice his age. After winning the Golden Ball at the FIFA U-17 World Cup in 2017, expectations were sky-high.

As of December 2025, Phil Foden is 25 years and 6 months old. His estimated net worth is £25 million, and he is 5 feet 7 inches (171 cm or 1.71 m) tall.

School / College / University

He first showed signs of promise at Bridge Hall Primary School in Stockport, where his PE teacher saw something special and flagged him to Manchester City’s youth scouts. That quiet tip-off changed everything. Soon enough, he was in the City system, juggling schoolbooks with football boots.

To support his development, Manchester City enrolled him at St Bede’s College, an independent school known for nurturing young talent. They didn’t just spot his potential — they invested in it, covering his education so he could train seriously without sacrificing academics.

Food Habits

Phil Foden eats like a pro, but he hasn’t forgotten his roots. Most days, his meals are crafted by a private chef and guided by Manchester City’s nutrition team — think wild salmon glazed with honey and ginger, wholegrain rice, and greens like bok choy. On match days, it’s all about simplicity and fuel: pesto pasta is his go-to.

Still, he’s human. After a big game, he’s been known to sneak in some chicken wings or a cheeky burger. And every now and then? It’s beans on toast — a humble nod to home.

Net worth 2025

£25 million

As of December 2025, it’s estimated that Phil Foden has a net worth of about £25 million. He isn’t just Manchester City’s homegrown diamond—he’s also becoming one of the most financially savvy footballers of his generation. At just 24, Foden’s income isn’t just built on weekly wages. He has multiple revenue streams—from Premier League contracts and sponsorships to image rights and personal businesses. Here’s how it all stacks up:

1. Manchester City Salary – £225,000/week (~£11.7 million/year)

Foden’s primary income source is his player contract with Manchester City, which was extended in October 2022. The five-year deal runs until June 2027, reportedly worth £225,000 per week, placing him among City’s highest earners.

Total salary from this contract alone (2022–2027):
~£58.5 million gross over 5 years
Estimated after-tax income (UK 45% tax bracket):
~£6.4 million per year in hand

His previous contract before 2022 was significantly lower—roughly £30,000–60,000 per week, suggesting that his current deal represents a massive leap, reflecting his rise in the squad hierarchy and global stature.

2. Endorsements & Brand Deals – £4.4 million/year

Foden has secured high-value endorsements with major brands that align with his youth, style, and rising global appeal.

Nike – Longtime partner since his youth days. He wears their boots and appears in global ad campaigns.
Hugo Boss – Foden has appeared in BOSS campaigns targeting Gen-Z.
TCL Mobile – Featured in smartphone promotions, especially in Europe and Asia.
Cernucci – A UK-based streetwear/jewelry brand with whom he has a recurring partnership.
StatSports – Performance analytics firm; Foden promotes their elite tracking devices.

➡️ Estimated endorsement income:
Roughly £4.4 million annually, based on brand contracts, licensing, public appearances, and usage of his image.

3. Social Media Influence – £1.7–£2.4 million/year

With over 10 million Instagram followers, Phil Foden is a digital asset. He regularly shares lifestyle content, brand collaborations, and behind-the-scenes moments with Man City and England.

Influencer marketing experts estimate that someone with Foden’s reach can command £20,000–£60,000 per sponsored post, depending on engagement.
He occasionally promotes partner brands via stories and reels, rather than hard-sell posts, which maintains trust with fans while delivering value to sponsors.

➡️ Estimated social income:
£1.7 to £2.4 million per year from monetized posts and brand bonuses.

4. Image Rights & Licensing – £2 million+/year via Rondog Sports Ltd

Foden’s off-field image is managed through his own limited company: Rondog Sports Ltd, founded to handle sponsorship income, licensing fees, and brand deals.

According to UK company records:

The company’s 2023 earnings exceeded £2 million, almost all from commercial appearances and third-party usage of his name and image.
This setup also allows for tax efficiency, common among top athletes.

➡️ Why it matters:
Rather than receiving everything as salary, channeling revenue through Rondog allows Foden to draw dividends, reinvest, and manage his commercial rights more like a business than a celebrity.

5. Real Estate & Investments – Value unknown, but growing

In 2022, Phil Foden registered a new company, PF Property Holdings Ltd, signaling a shift toward real estate investment.

While not much is known about its portfolio yet, this kind of entity typically owns rental properties, land, or high-value residential units.
Given his income and youth, it’s safe to assume Foden is taking a long-term wealth preservation approach.

Additionally, his family lives in a mansion in the Greater Manchester area, and Foden himself owns luxury cars and assets that appreciate over time.

➡️ Income from real estate:
Currently unknown, but early signs show he’s building passive income streams outside of football.
