      We revealed Foden’s girlfriend Rebecca Cooke swore at him in a bust-up after looking at his phone on holiday in June.
      She barked: “Do you think I’m a d***head?” before walking out of a posh Corfu beach club in front of stunned holidaymakers.
      Furious Rebecca, the mum of Phil’s two kids, told him: “We can’t take you anywhere, this always happens.”
      Rebecca, also 22, had earlier grabbed Phil’s mobile while he was in the sea.

      He did not respond when she began fuming at him, and she shouted: “Tell her ‘n’ all.”
      Weeks earlier, Premier League ace Phil engaged online with Holly, who appeared on ITV2 dating show The Cabins.
      The snap shows her lying down in PJs paired with the raunchy underwear.
      A source said: “Holly is a stunning girl and obviously gets interest from a lot of people.

      It was just a bit of innocent flirting online — it wasn’t anything more than that.”
      Sasha Attwood — girlfriend of Phil’s City teammate Jack Grealish — is also among Holly’s followers.
      She has liked a string of her pics and left a comment calling Holly “pretty”.
      The Corfu incident was not the first time Phil has landed himself in trouble.
      He was sent home in disgrace from an England trip to Iceland in 2020 after inviting two women to his room with then-teammate Mason Greenwood.

      She said: “It’s not the sort of person I want to be involved with.

      He attempted to push for a move away while the transfer window was open, but his exit plan did not come to fruition.
      And now he has been relegated to the subs bench by United boss Erik ten Hag.

      Ahead of United’s midweek clash with Leicester, he said: “We are happy with him, he’s happy to be here and we want to make the season a success together.

      And following the collapse of the move, Gil made a cryptic post on his Instagram page.
      He posted an image with the caption: “Sometimes an old photo makes us value the moments where we were happiest and we didn’t realise.”
      Gil has not played a single minute under Antonio Conte this season.
      It is clear to see he is far down the pecking order in terms of attackers at Tottenham, with the signing of Richarlison pushing him further down the order.

      The 21-year-old played just 85 minutes of Premier League football under both Nuno Espirito Santo and Conte before the latter sanctioned a loan move to Valencia for the winger.
      Tottenham brought Gil for a fee of £22million plus Erik Lamela from Sevilla, with Gil at the time being one of La Liga’s rising stars.
      However, things have not worked out for him across the English channel and his move to England is threatening to turn sour.
      Tottenham had been in line to secure a loan deal for Dan James before he sealed a season long-loan with Fulham.

      The Spaniard, who lifted the European Championship twice and the World Cup for his country, won countless honours at the LaLiga giants.
      He tasted Champions League success on four occasions as well as winning the domestic title nine times before his departure to join Japanese J-League club Vissel Kobe, who he now captains.
      Iniesta has just returned to the Far East after enjoying his summer break, and as he shared a photo of he and his family arriving back in Japan, he also revealed his young boy is a City fan.
      The youngster was pictured wearing the Premier League side’s colours in the snap the icon posted on Instagram, and City fans quickly urged the club to snap up the child to their academy.

      Speculation mounted back in 2018 that Iniesta would be reuniting with Guardiola at City after he announced that he was ending his 16-year stay at Barcelona.
      However, his refusal to play against the Catalans ultimately scuppered any move.
      He said: “Pep sent me messages yes, but there are some reports that I don’t understand.
      “I won’t play against Barcelona. My time in elite football ends at Barca.”
      Since arriving from Barcelona four years ago, Iniesta has chipped in with 26 goals in 126 games where he has been a key figure.
      He has won both the Emperor’s Cup – the Japanese equivalent to the FA Cup – as well as the Japanese Super Cup where he scored in the penalty shootout victory against Yokohama F. Marinos.
      Those trophies are the only pieces of silverware that Vissel Kobe have claimed in their 56-year history but his love affair could soon be about to change with the club sitting second bottom of the table with just nine games to go. More
