Ex-Man City midfielder Michael Brown urges Phil Foden to leave

Ex-Manchester City midfielder Michael Brown has advised Phil Foden to leave the club on loan.

The 19-year-old has made just two appearances in the Premier League this season, both of which were off the bench.

"He has to play football," Brown, who started his career with City, told Goal.

"He has to try and play as many games as he can. What I would say is, training with the best players in the world, a great team, great tactical coach to be around, those small amount of games and having trained with these players day in, day out, he's still learning and developing.

"But, there comes a time when he will need to play every single week."
