The pair welcomed their son Ronnie into the world back in 2019, with Foden,  who was 18 at the time of his son's birth, having previously spoken on the transition to becoming a father to his young son Ronnie.

'I was there for the birth. I walked out of the room, gave it a little tear and then went back in like nothing happened,' he said during an interview with Manchester City.

'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.

'Your life changes. There's no free time, which is probably why I've been struggling to fish as much.

The 24-year-old is a big family man and enjoys spending most of his time with his loved ones

'I've enjoyed every moment of it. He's been quite well-behaved, to be honest. He's not been making it hard for me, which is good.

'He sleeps through until about 7am. I haven't really had to get up in the middle of the night, so I've been able to get my sleep.'

Foden is the youngest professional footballer to win six Premier League titles after helping Pep Guardiola's side claim their fourth consecutive trophy earlier this season.

He was also named Premier League Player of the Year and the Football Writer's Association Player of the Year for his outstanding performances for Manchester City during the 2023-24 campaign.

Speaking on his family life, a source close to the star said to MailOnline: 'Phil is very close to his family, particularly his parents.

'They, along with Rebecca, have been a constant source of support for Ronnie when he has felt the pressure and when things have got tough.'

Inside the life of Phil Foden away from football, including relationship with childhood sweetheart

This season, the 24-year-old has scored 27 goals across 56 appearances for Man City, with Guardiola crowning the attacker 'world class'.

Foden, meanwhile, exclusively opened up to Mail Sport on his journey through the Man City ranks.

'The challenge for me was always a mountain to climb to even reach the first team,' Foden says in the It's All Kicking Off! interview.

'In my head I just wanted to make one appearance for this club and be able to say that I had done it.

'But once I did that I thought: "No I can actually play here. I can handle the standard".

'Now I am at that stage where I feel like I am a key player in the team. I feel very comfortable with that.'

But akin to his team-mates in Germany, Foden has failed to replicate his excellent form for England so far in Euro 2024.

That could largely be down to his positional change, with many calling for him to play more centrally in the No 10 position, instead of coming off the wing.
