Man City star Phil Foden involved in ugly fight backstage at Khan vs Brook clash

Phil Foden and his entourage appeared to get caught up in an ugly scrap while backstage at the Amir Khan vs Kell Brook fight in Manchester on Saturday evening.

Footage began circulating early on Sunday morning showing the Manchester City forward backstage at the AO Arena.

The video begins with Foden being walked into a private area before his female counterpart turns around to confront a group of men standing outside the room.

The young woman turns to the collective and asks which one of them yelled the word "c***" at the footballer.

Foden's mother Claire then exits the room before shoving one of the men while telling the group to "f*** off".

A fight then ensues, with punches thrown from both sides as people spill into the narrow corridor.

Foden's mum was struck in the face during the brawl.

The City star, dressed in a white top and blue jacket, appears to briefly step into the corridor while the melee is taking place.

One of the men who stepped out of Foden's private area picks up a fire extinguisher and swings it at the opposite group as they retreat.

It is unclear when the ugly incident took place but Brook's ring walk song 'All of the Lights' by Kanye West can be heard over the speakers in footage captured.

Manchester City have been contacted for comment on the matter.

The England international was at the highly-anticipated boxing event just hours after Manchester City were beaten 3-2 at home to Tottenham.

Foden played the entirety of the tie as his side lost out in the 95th minute.
