He is the new Andrés Iniesta from Pep Guardiola and Real Madrid wants to steal him by paying this fortune

During his time at FC Barcelona, Pep Guardiola found excellent players that make him possible to achieve some unforgettable conquers and to transform in one of the best teams ever. One of those top stars that the Catalan coach counted on was Andrés Iniesta, the Spanish that has been one of the greatest players ever in his position.

At Manchester City, Guardiola tried to form a new Iniesta and after some years of work he is near to get one. Even though he has more attacking skills, he is also capable of managing the ball as the Spanish midfielder did in his time. His name is Phil Foden, the 20 years old English star that the Citizens have.

Foden was formed at Manchester City, and he has a contract lasting until June 2024, that he renewed for the last time in 2018. He is one of the club’s greatest prospect and Guardiola has given him the chances to play 92 matches, in which he entered mostly from the bench, scoring 20 goals and giving 16 assists.

During the last hours it was reported by English press newspaper Daily Mirror that Real Madrid are looking forward to signing him. Despite being interested on players such as Kylian Mbappé or Erling Haaland, the Galacticos have also put an eye on him. According to specialized website Trasfermarkt, Foden has a reported value of $60 million.
