Injury boost as Man City player returns to training ahead of Leicester clash

Manchester City travel to the King Power Stadium to face Leicester City on Saturday afternoon and have received an injury boost ahead of the Premier League meeting. Phil Foden took part in a light training session after damaging his foot during the 2020 European Championships.

The 21-year-old wasn’t able to feature in the final for England, but his injury wasn’t expected to be serious at the time. Foden was seen wearing a protective boot and still hasn’t fully recovered months later, so the damage was worse than feared.

Foden has made 124 appearances in all competitions for City since rising through the youth ranks to the first-team, scoring 31 goals with 22 assists.
