Ronnie Foden, the seven-year-old son of Manchester City footballer Phil Foden, is seeking a brand and social media manager, according to reports. The position offers a salary of approximately £50,000 per year, reflecting the significant online presence the child has cultivated.
Foden's Instagram account, managed by his parents Phil Foden and Rebecca Cooke, has garnered nearly four million followers. The account's growth reportedly began after Ronnie was filmed singing along to a song on his father's shoulders following Manchester City's Champions League victory. Phil Foden stated that he created the account to satisfy fan demand after he noticed numerous comments asking to see more of his son.
Ronnie has already engaged in several brand partnerships, including collaborations with clothing brands Flannels, Little Bird, and The Couture Club. He has been featured modeling their products on his social media platforms.
His online activities extend beyond Instagram, with a TikTok account boasting 750,000 followers and a YouTube channel also in operation. The family has also established an Instagram account for Ronnie's five-year-old sister, True, which has accumulated 48,000 followers and features photos of her in designer clothing.
Despite his significant online following, Ronnie will not be able to take control of his own social media accounts until he turns 16, due to the UK's upcoming ban on social media use for individuals under that age.
