In that video, a group of men who are believed to be from the Merseyside because of their accent are seen verbally abusing the 21-year-old, before the player’s mum tries to intervene and push the abuser. However, it ultimately resulted in chaos as both involved parties go back and forth, throwing around punches.

Manchester City have released a statement in response to the release of a video that shows assailants attacking Phil Foden’s mother. City have condemned the actions of those involved and pledged their support towards Foden and his family.
“The club is aware of a video which has circulated on social media showing Phil Foden and his family being harassed and abused,” a club statement reads. “We are shocked and appalled about the nature of the abuse and ensuing assault on one of Phil’s family members. “We will continue to give Phil and his family all the support and assistance they need.”
This, however, is not the first time when Foden has found himself in the headlines for the wrong reasons. He was temporarily suspended from the England national team a day after his international debut against Iceland for sneaking in local models into his hotel room by allegedly bribing the staff. Alongside Foden, Greenwood was also involved in that scandal and received the same punishment.

Notably, while Foden has turned his life around and now finds himself being one of Manchester City’s key players, Greenwood is involved in a police investigation for allegedly abusing his former girlfriend, Harriet Robson.

One of the attackers can be heard yelling “son of a c**t” and another of the men is then seen striking one of the women in Foden’s party.
As the situation escalates, a man rips a nearby fire-extinguisher off the wall and uses it as weapon, with the footage eventually ending as the group of assailants appear to flee the scene. It has been reported that the Greater Manchester Police have been contacted over the incident but it is unclear whether any criminal investigation will take place at this stage.
