## Caption

This is a full circle moment you know… throwback to Phil Foden posting this onto this Instagram story in 2021 😳🤯

Foden was really putting everyone onto Nico O’Reilly back in 2021, he was ahead of the curve…

Nico was 15 at the time, playing for City’s U16 squad having just been offered a professional contract. He was playing an attacking midfielder and had scored 7 goals in 11 matches when this was posted in January 2021 🤝🏽

The #RisingBaller. You have to respect it 🫡👀
