World Cup 2026 pedigree
Phil Foden was a peripheral squad member at WC2022 — he featured in three games but did not start the high-profile knockout fixtures. FIFA World Cup 2026 is the first cycle where he arrives as a guaranteed starter.
Role for England
Manchester City's versatile attacking midfielder, Foden has played every role across the front line — left-wing, right-wing, false-9, deep #10. For England under Tuchel he likely starts on the left or as a #10, with the flexibility to swap with Bellingham mid-game.
World Cup 2026 outlook
Outside top Golden Boot prices (around 40-50/1) but a high-volume passer with strong assist markets. England's tactical setup will determine whether he plays his best position; if so, he is a value pick for England-specific goal-contribution props.
Tournament starts 11 June 2026
