Man City whiz Foden upset after Mbappe taunt post released from personal social media account

Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden is upset after a social media post from his account was released taunting PSG star Kylian Mbappe.

Shortly after Manchester City had booked their place in the Champions League semi-finals, a picture of Foden began circulating with the words '@KMbappe are you ready?'

But the 20-year-old City star and his representatives were not happy with the tone of the tweet, as it looked almost as if he was throwing down the gauntlet to Paris Saint-Germain superstar Mbappe, reports the Daily Mail.

He quickly asked for it to be taken down. The post had however already gained plenty of online traction and received a series of replies from online Twitter users, who questioned why Foden had appeared to immediately reach out to Mbappe.

Foden's representatives will be discussing their next steps and could well look to end their relationship with the company.
