PHIL-ING GOOD England star Phil Foden became dad at 18 with childhood sweetheart Rebecca Cooke and bought parents a £2million mansion

ALL eyes will be on Phil Foden as a potential England star after an incredible campaign for Manchester City.

The outrageously talented midfielder could be set for a starting berth in Gareth Southgate’s first eleven in the Euro 2021 opener, and he has done a lot of growing up since he made his City debut aged just 17.

Foden, now 21, became a dad a year after he made his bow for his boyhood club.

The wonderkid welcomed a son, Ronnie, with long-term girlfriend Rebecca Cooke, and he dedicated his MOTM display in the Carabao Cup final in 2020.

And just a few months before he penned a £30,000-per-week deal that ties him to the Etihad till 2024 in 2018, he splashed £2MILLION on a home for his parents.

There was only one snag to him becoming a dad so young… Foden had to sacrifice his love of fishing, for now.

FAMILY COMES FIRST

In January 2019, the birth of his first child changed Foden’s life.

He had already been dating Wag Rebecca for some time but they kept their romance under wraps.

Foden – who made his England debut in the 1-0 win over Iceland in 2020 – admitted he shed a tear when his son arrived.

“I was there for the birth,” he told Manchester City’s official website.

“I walked out of the room, gave it a little tear and then went back in like nothing happened.

“I’m not one for crying in front of people. I like to be on my own, but I was there in the room, watched it happen and it was a special moment.”

And fatherhood certainly must agree with him, because back in April Foden revealed he and Rebecca are expecting their second child together.
