Phil Foden’s four-year-old son Ronnie gains 2.1 MILLION Instagram followers in two days

Phil Foden’s son Ronnie has gained over two million Instagram followers in his first two days on the social media platform after rising to fame during Man City’s Treble-winning celebrations.

Pep Guardiola’s side completed the historic feat earlier this month after beating Inter Milan in the Champions League final, following up their Premier League and FA Cup triumphs.

As City celebrated with the Champions League trophy, Ronnie was brought on the pitch by his dad to join in the fun as the pair posed for pictures along with Phil’s partner Rebecca Cooke.

Ronnie didn’t stop there, as he was also seen getting photos with goalscoring sensation Erling Haaland on the pitch and in the dressing room.

He was then on his dad’s shoulders when City’s stars serenaded their match-winner by singing ‘Rodri’s On Fire’ to the tune of Gala’s 90s hit ‘Freed From Desire’.

This left fans joking that he was everywhere that night, and they seemingly can’t get enough of the four-year-old after he set up an Instagram account on Sunday.

Within the first two days, Ronnie has already accumulated 2.1 million followers, despite only putting up two posts to date.

They are both from that famous night in Istanbul, with one of him being taken down the tunnel on his dad’s shoulders, and the other of him having his picture taken with Phil and City icon Sergio Aguero.

Ronnie still has a way to go to catch his dad, who has 8.6 million followers, but he is well on his way to doing that, and has been nicknamed ‘El Wey’ – ‘The Dude’ after becoming an online sensation.

He made another appearance when City were treated to an open-top bus parade through Manchester in front of thousands of their fans two days after their win in Istanbul.

Ronnie was seen being carried by his dad as City’s players were introduced on stage before making their way onto the bus.

Jack Grealish grabbed most of the headlines in the wake of City’s Treble win as he partied for four straight days with his team-mates.

He later admitted that he had turned up to England’s training camp afterwards ‘a little hungover’ but claimed he had no regrets about his celebrations.

Grealish’s popularity has only grown over recent weeks, and fans’ interest in the other star of that week – Ronnie – does not appear to be dimming either, based on his staggering Instagram follower count.
