Ronnie, Phil Foden’s four-year-old son, has earned a modelling contract after becoming a growing social media celebrity with over three million Instagram followers.
Ronnie has grown in popularity on social media since joining Manchester City’s celebrations following the club’s Treble last season, which included Champions League glory in Turkey.
Foden has been pleased to watch his eldest child enjoy spending time with his City teammates, who frequently interact with the youngster in and around the club and after games.
His Instagram account, which is handled by his parents, has nearly four million followers, and he has recently signed a modelling deal with a talent agency, according to the Sun.
Ronnie has formed a close rapport with City fans, whom they have dubbed ‘The Dude’ and ‘El Wey’ after his humorous antics following the club’s European championship victory.

After defeating Inter Milan in last season’s final, Ronnie was brought on the pitch by his father to join in the excitement as the two posed for photos alongside Phil’s partner Rebecca Cooke.
He was also spotted smiling with goalscoring wonder Erling Haaland on the field, and they snapped a selfie together in the locker room.

Further celebrations ensued as he climbed onto his father’s shoulders as City’s stars serenaded their match-winner by singing ‘Rodri’s On Fire’ to the tune of Gala’s 1990s song ‘Freed From Desire’.
An agreement has been reached with Propel Talent Group to market the youth and its connected businesses.
The company claims to handle ‘the careers of some of the UK’s most sought-after talent,’ amidst an increase in influencers and online viral sensations.
Ronnie has already represented several fashion labels, with the child modeling for Flannels Junior in a recent picture session.
