Foden unlikely to play for England due to illness, Guardiola says
Manchester City manager
Pep Guardiola said midfielder Phil Foden is unlikely to join up with the
England squad for Nations League fixtures against Ireland and Finland due to
illness.
The 24-year-old, who
was called up by
interim England boss Lee Carsley for matches in Dublin on Sept. 7 and Finland
at Wembley three days later, has made only one appearance for City this season
as a substitute in their Premier League opener at Chelsea two weeks ago.
"I don't think so
right now," Guardiola said when asked about Foden joining the England
team. "I think he will not go but I don't know. He doesn't feel well. But
national teams, they decide."
Foden has earned 41 caps for England and started all of their games at
Euro 2024 in Germany.
