And I don’t really think there’s much point until we actually hear something official now, because we’ve heard of expulsion, we’ve heard of taking away titles, we’ve heard of 60 points, 40 points.
“But whatever happens is either going to be a big black eye for the Premier League or a big black eye for City. So it won’t be good for football overall.” Credit: ImagoMan City to tie down Phil Foden to new dealSources have told Football Insider that Man City want to open contract talks with Phil Foden to keep him at the Etihad.Foden’s contract is set to expire in 2027, with confidence around the club that the 25-year-old will want to remain in Manchester.Man City have no plans to entertain any offers for Foden in the summer, with the midfielder having contributed seven goals and three assists in the Premier League this season.
