According to Sports Boom, Phil Foden of Manchester City is a target for Real Madrid in the summer of 2026. According to reports, the Spanish behemoth sees Foden as “the last, crowning piece of their New Galacticos puzzle”.
Jude Bellingham, a star for Real Madrid and a teammate of Foden’s on the England national team, is a close buddy. Los Blancos want to utilise this as their “primary trump card” to persuade Foden to move to the Estadio Bernabeu. According to reports, Paris Saint-Germain is also interested in signing Foden in the summer of 2026.
However, Man City is preparing a lifelong deal for the 25-year-old and has no immediate intentions to trade Foden. The England international is a homegrown talent and a vital member of the Man City first squad. Foden, who has made 353 appearances for the Cityzens so far in his career and has scored 110 goals and provided 65 assists, is set to get £400,000 a week from Man City.
Real Madrid prepares a world-record bid for Man City star
In the final stretch, when City plays in the Premier League, Champions League, and Carabao Cup finals, Foden will undoubtedly have another great run of form. The England star may get a world-record transfer offer from Real Madrid during the summer transfer window, but his present priorities are to finish the season strongly.
Real Madrid is after Phil Foden, so supporters should be “prepared for the biggest transfer saga in football history”, according to “football transfer specialist” Ekrem Konur, who writes for Sports Boom.
As Los Blancos and Paris Saint-Germain show interest in Foden, whom Man City considers “untouchable”, the player must now decide between staying loyal and joining one of Europe’s most prestigious teams. This summer will be “the most defining of his professional career,” according to Konur, as Europe’s elite “prepare historic, world-record bids”.
