Manchester City midfielder, Rodri, has said Phil Foden can become the “best English player in history”.
Rodri was reacting to Foden winning the PFA Player of the Year award on Tuesday night.
The England midfielder won the prize, thanks to a stunning season with Pep Guardiola’s side.
Foden scored 19 goals in 35 appearances as City clinched the Premier League title for a fourth straight season.
He beat off competition from Chelsea’s Cole Palmer, Arsenal’s Martin Odegaard and Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins as well as Rodri and Haaland to win the award.
Rodri said: “I’m so, so happy about Phil. To be honest he’s a very good kid, a very shy kid.
“For me, he has the ability to be the best English player in history when he finishes his career. He needs to keep the level up in his game, already he’s one of the best players in the league and in Europe.”
