Phil Foden's girlfriend Rebecca Cooke is reportedly selling two customized England World Cup shirts after the Manchester City star surprisingly missed out on Thomas Tuchel's squad for this summer's tournament.
It appears Cooke may have been preparing for a summer supporting Foden in the United States, Canada and Mexico before discovering that the 26-year-old would not be travelling with the Three Lions.
According to The Sun, two England shirts have now appeared on Cooke's Vinted account.
And they are not standard shirts.
Customized for the World Cup
Cooke is reportedly offering both the white England home shirt and red away shirt worn during the tournament.
Each has been listed for £70 and described as new with tags, in size 12-14.
The shirts had previously been altered by Essex-based clothing company A Vintage Fit, which reportedly charges around £180 to transform football jerseys into tighter, figure-hugging versions.
Similar customized shirts were worn during the World Cup by partners of England players, including Ellie Watkins, wife of striker Ollie Watkins.
Cooke's shirts therefore appear to have been prepared with the tournament in mind.
There was only one problem.
Foden wasn't selected.
World Cup snub surprised many
Foden was one of the notable absentees when Tuchel selected his England squad for the World Cup.
The Manchester City midfielder had endured a difficult 2025/26 campaign by his own standards as City failed to win the Premier League title for the second consecutive season.
Despite his struggles, Foden still produced 12 Premier League goal contributions.
His omission nevertheless meant Cooke would not need the England shirts she had apparently prepared for the tournament.
A source quoted by The Sun joked: "Perhaps Rebecca had one foot on the plane when she got the tops."
More than 100 items reportedly for sale
The England shirts are reportedly only a small part of Cooke's activity on the resale platform.
Her Vinted account is said to contain more than 100 listed items, including four Manchester City shirts that have undergone similar alterations.
The account reportedly states: "Selling new & used authentic items only. Account ran by management team."
The £70 asking price for each England shirt is also lower than the standard £89.99 price quoted for an England jersey through official channels, despite Cooke's shirts having received the additional tailoring.
Foden focused on comeback season
While his partner clears out some unused World Cup clothing, Foden has turned his attention towards Manchester City's new season.
Speaking during City's pre-season tour of the Far East, the midfielder admitted that missing the World Cup allowed him to step away from football.
"I took some time off football, spent some good time with the family, and just rested."
Foden now wants to rediscover his best form and become an important figure for City again.
"Going into this season, I just want to have a really good year, want to try and help the team as much as possible, and try and be one of the leaders, and hopefully win titles as well!"
For Cooke, meanwhile, two carefully prepared England World Cup shirts have apparently become surplus to requirements.
