Man City whiz Foden delighted being fully fit for final double

Manchester City ace Phil Foden feels ready to give his manager Pep Guardiola a late season headache.

The attacking midfielder is fully fit after a period in and out of the side late in the campaign.

Foden, who is only 22, is currently backup on the left to his England teammate Jack Grealish.

The attacker wants to play in the FA Cup final and Champions League final in June.

"I came back a lot quicker than expected, to be honest. I thought it was going to be a long process," he said, per the Manchester Evening News.

"I healed quickly and me being me anyway I was trying to push it as soon as possible.

"It's definitely taken me a while since my op to get back into things with my fitness. I've not been used to sitting around for so long not doing anything so it took a while to get my fitness back. Now I've got that back and I am looking sharp again and scoring and assisting. It makes me happy and makes me feel comfortable."
