Jack Grealish denies there's tension between England coach Gareth Southgate and his Manchester City teammate Phil Foden.

Despite being one of the star players in the England squad, Foden has played just 19 minutes at the World Cup so far and, to the bewilderment of many, didn't feature in the goalless draw against the United States when Southgate's side were in need of creativity.

However, Grealish is adamant that there isn't an issue between Southgate and Foden.

Grealish told BBC Sport: "People always used to say, 'Ah, he's got a problem with Jack' last year or two years ago, and then I come on and it's like, 'Oh, he likes Jack now, who is it next?'.

"And then I know people were saying, 'He doesn't like Madders (James Maddison)' and now Madders is in, so it's fine with him, and then Phil didn't play, so it's like, 'He's got a problem with Phil'.

"He hasn't got a problem with anyone. He speaks to all of us the same.

"If you're not playing - Phil didn't play the other night - he's still the same with Phil as he is with me, when I came on, or Harry Kane.

"He's not got a problem with anyone. If he did have a problem with someone, you'd know about it."
