The 24-year-old has been missing for the past three weeks due to a prolonged illness, causing him to miss City's matches against Ipswich and West Ham.
Manchester City star Phil Foden has missed the past two Premier League games due to an ongoing illness but is now back in training ahead of his impending return.AdvertisementAdvertisementCity won both games all collected six points but have missed that creative flair which Foden brings in the middle which has since been filled by the likes of Mateo Kovacic and Rico Lewis.
Foden had been described as unwell since winning the PFA Player of the Year award a few weeks back with manager Pep Guardiola describing the midfielder to be in “discomfort”.
Foden has now been pictured looking back to his old self as he took part in City's training session yesterday which is a breath of fresh air for City fans who have been waiting to see him in action after his late pre-season return after Euro 2024.
Guardiola had provided an update on Foden after their test against West Ham United as he described his discomfort.
“Hopefully after the international break Phil will be ready,’ Guardiola said. “He played 45 minutes against Chelsea and after he didn't feel good.
“We made tests, he feels better but he doesn't feel perfect so we prefer to give him time to come back after the international break and be ready for the next games.”
The Premier League Player of the Season bagged 19 goals and eight assists last season and will be a huge boost to City who already sit at the top of the league as they prepare to welcome Brentford .
