When Phil Foden played for Manchester City, it was hard not to pay attention to the tattoo on his neck, but what does it mean? The England international has become a symbol of fashion and style in modern football, and his dyed blonde hair inspired by Paul Gascoin made headlines at Euro 2020, while he has won numerous trophies and honours on the pitch. So, what does Foden's neck tattoo say? What is the meaning behind it?
Foden's neck tattoo has four words— "Sky is the limit." The tattoo went from the back of his ear all the way to the bottom of his neck. Manchester City midfielder Foden got a tattoo in February 2022 and first gained attention on the football pitch in the FA Cup fourth round in the 4-1 win over Fulham. The meaning behind the tattoo is one of the driving forces behind the England international's progress, with "the sky is the limit" meaning nothing is impossible or out of reach. That's certainly true of his football career for the 21-year-old Manchester City midfielder, who has won 10 domestic trophies – including three Premier League titles – and finished runner-up in the Champions League final in 2020-21. Foden is also a member of england, which was very close to Euro 2020 last year, and he got a taste of the title at the World Youth Championships with the U17 national team of the Three Lions.
Foden's body art was by London tattoo artist Gabriel Manik. Known for his meticulous and impressive tattoo art, Manik has previously left his own work on Foden's teammate Sterling, singer Anderson Parker and others. As tattoo artist Maniak explained on social media, Foden already plans to add more body art in the future.
