Foden to Miss Nations League Games Due to Illness

Manchester United's Erik ten Hag confirmed that Mason Mount, Tyrell Malacia, and Victor Lindelof's return dates remain uncertain, though Mount is progressing positively in his rehab and could resume training soon. Meanwhile, Manchester City's Phil Foden is likely to miss England's Nations League games against the Republic of Ireland and Finland due to illness, as confirmed by manager Pep Guardiola. Foden has only played 45 minutes this season and continues to recover from a stomach virus. Guardiola also provided fitness updates on other players, indicating that Rico Lewis is in good form and both Mateo Kovacic and Rodri are improving and likely to feature in upcoming matches.
