And as a result, Leroy refused to sign any of the contract offers put in front of him and played with Bayern all summer, and will probably leave next summer.

If Foden doesn't play the same will happen. Some people don't care about that, others do.

But Foden succeeding is good for City, even if there was a slight drop off both financially and our long-term ability to keep our best youngsters. This short-termism is going to cost us more and more top young players as it did with Sancho.

And it's not even Foden, it's a chronic problem at this club and it's going to keep continuing unless we as a club are prepared to take a risk and place some faith in our academy. We've had numerous players that were good enough to be part of the first-team picture at the time that we sold for financial gain. Players like Lopes,Trippier, Suarez, Denayer etc who could have all done a job for us at a certain time ala the Barcelona model which promoted even less talented players like Tello, Jefferen, Montoya etc and managed to win virtually everything. There is literally no excuse for it anymore, it's a real issue we have with our current model and losing Foden would compound that fact.
