Phil Foden makes exciting Jude Bellingham prediction amid Man City transfer links

Manchester City ace Phil Foden is backing reported transfer target Jude Bellingham to become the 'best midfielder in the world' after his outstanding display in England's 3-0 World Cup win over Senegal in Qatar on Sunday evening.

After cruising into the last-16 of the competition, England roared into the quarter-finals, setting up a glamour tie with France, with ease, brushing Senegal aside, inspired by Bellingham's brilliance. The 19-year-old, who is the subject of interest from a wealth of clubs, provided the assist for Jordan Henderson's opener, ahead of playing a key hand in the Three Lions' second goal of the game and Harry Kane's first of the tournament.

Bellingham's assist for Henderson's low finish meant he became the youngest ever player to have provided an assist in a World Cup knockout match since records began. He oozed class throughout the contest, leaving England supporters in awe of his performance.
