A former Manchester City youth coach has admitted Jadon Sancho had to leave the club in order to become a superstar, but said current star Phil Foden is the most 'naturally talented' player he has ever seen.
Sancho has taken the Bundesliga by storm since bravely leaving the north-west club for Borussia Dortmund for first-team football in 2017, while Foden has had to bide his time after staying in England but is also beginning to make his mark at senior level.
Steve Eyre, who coached at the academy while the talented pair were coming through the ranks, says Foden had the more natural talent from a younger age and Sancho was always going to have to move away in order to progress.
