MAN City ace Phil Foden shows he’s the man of the catch as his club reels in British record signing Jack Grealish.
Phil, 21, landed the 45lb carp on a trip with dad Phil Snr and two pals to a lake near Brentwood, Essex — but City had even bigger fish to fry.
They were closing in on the £100million deal for Aston Villa’s Jack, 25.
Premier League winner Phil is now set to line up with his England Euros teammate for club and country.
And they’ll hope to make an even bigger splash at the World Cup next year.
Phil recalled: “My dad had a fishing rod of his dad’s and said we should go and try it out. I fell in love with it and we ended up going every weekend.
“I still remember my first catch. It wasn’t very big, I was just learning, but it’s the excitement.
“It’s good for clearing your head after you’ve had a bad game. I’ve found it the solution to everything.”
