Phil Foden returned to England’s training camp on Thursday night after attending the birth of his third child.
The English Football Association, via Daily Mail, confirmed on Wednesday that Foden had returned to the UK due to a ‘pressing family matter’.
Foden boarded a plane back to England straight after Tuesday’s draw against Slovenia to be with his family as his partner Rebecca Cooke had a baby boy.
It was revealed in April of this year that the 24-year-old and Cooke, 22, were expecting their third child.

The family celebrated their exciting news with a lavish baby shower, sharing pictures online of the celebrations.
An FA Spokesperson said: “Phil Foden has temporarily left the England camp and has returned to the UK for a pressing family matter.”
Cooke and Foden share a son Ronnie, five, and a daughter, True, who turned one earlier this year.
