Phil Foden hopes England are on the cards to win the 2024 European Championship this summer after reportedly visiting a psychic with his girlfriend ahead of the tournament.
The 24-year-old Foden has had an excellent season at Manchester City, winning the club’s league title for the fourth time in a row and being named Premier League Player of the Year.
He now wants to cap it off by ending England’s 58-year wait for a major tournament win, and was keen to find out what’s next as he and his pregnant partner Rebecca Cooke visited a psychic just days away before leaving for Germany. , according to The sun.
He received a tarot card reading from Chloe Smith, 25, but the mystic took to Instagram and insisted she would not reveal exactly what she told Foden and Cooke.
‘A reading is personal and no details of a reading are shared, whether it is a celebrity or not!’ she wrote.

A source for The Sun claimed Foden was very interested in hearing from the psychic, although they were unable to confirm whether he had been told tournament glory was around the corner.
“Phil was just as eager to finish the reading as Rebecca was, especially with such a big tournament coming up,” they said.
‘Hopefully Chloe told him she saw football coming home! Phil is very in touch with his feelings and was keen to see if Chloe could give him some insight into the future.’
Whatever Foden heard, he seemed impressed by Smith’s talk as he afterwards left a discount code for his 11.7 million followers on Instagram.
The Instagram account of Foden’s son Ronnie – who has become a huge hit on social media – shared a message that read: ‘If you’re spiritual like me, you’ll love @chloemediumship. She’s amazing and we really bonded with her.
‘We also have a discount code: “Foden20”. Do not miss it.’
Mother-of-three Smith has been doing readings since she saw her grandmother’s ghost at her funeral four years ago.
She started doing readings for friends, before charging £35 per session, and counts celebrities such as Helen Skelton, Daisy May Cooper and Maura Higgins among her clients.
Foden, who is expecting his third child with Cooke later this year, is now in Germany as he prepares for England’s opening European Championship match against Serbia on Sunday evening.
It appears the versatile midfielder will definitely start for Gareth Southgate’s men after taking his game to the next level over the past 12 months, but where on the pitch he will play is less clear.

Foden thrived in the number 10 role under Pep Guardiola at City, but with Jude Bellingham also starring in that position, Southgate may be reluctant to play either man at center due to concerns they could get in each other’s way.
It seems more likely that Foden will start on the left wing and be given the freedom to drift inside during the match, with Southgate expected to play Trent Alexander-Arnold in midfield alongside Bellingham and Declan Rice.
