Man City boss Guardiola rules out Foden exit: His time is coming

Pep Guardiola has told Phil Foden 'his time is coming' at Manchester City.

The 19-year-old has been on the fringes of the City first-team once again this season, with critics calling for him to be loaned out.

But Guardiola is happy with how the club are handling their prodigious young midfielder.

Asked about Foden's future, Guardiold told reporters: "Maybe (he will play more). He can play – there are no doubts about that.

"He is ready; he will play Wednesday and is ready.

"I count all of them. I take decisions. I know how it works.

"No-one mentioned Phil after we won at Burnley! His time is coming and we will see in the next games."
