Phil Foden's mum has made the decision to move house - a week after she was on the receiving end of disgusting abuse from Manchester United fans.
Claire Rowlands, 45, became the subject of appalling chants from Red Devils supporters during last Sunday's limp 0-0 stalemate at Old Trafford.
The England midfielder was targeted by sections of the home support who abhorrently labelled her a 's**g' before his substitution in the 58th minute.
The Manchester City star bought the home, which is now being sold, four years ago and lived there with Rowlands and dad Phil Sr.
The 24-year-old later moved into a separate nearby house with fiancee Rebecca Cooke, with whom he has three young children.
The property, situated in the affluent Cheshire village of Prestbury, is now on the market with offers invited in excess of £3 million.



The mansion features a host of luxurious amenities, including a swimming pool, private cinema, gym, wine cellar, and even a state-of-the-art golf simulator.
However, owner Rowlands previously sparked controversy among neighbours after hosting a 'deafening' two-hour fireworks display in the back garden—likened by some to the extravagance of Sydney Harbour Bridge or Disneyland.
Residents said they were given no prior warning and were left to soothe distressed pets and infants as the professional-grade pyrotechnics lit up the sky between 6pm and 8:30pm.
Speaking about the incident, an annoyed neighbour said: 'There was no prior notice or warning, causing immense distress to residents' dogs and babies.
'In response, the locals [...] wrote an open letter deploring the antics of the Fodens and the effect it is having on our lives.'
In July, the player's neighbours labelled him 'selfish' and urged the club to intervene, claiming he hosted a loud party that went on until midnight, with booming gangster rap blaring late into the evening and his Doberman guard dog barking throughout the day.
A local told MailOnline of his mother's fireworks: 'They do throw some wild parties there and it does get noisy. People don't mind them enjoying themselves, but this is ridiculous.
'It's beginning to be known as a party house and there's always complaints about the noise and loud music!'





Claire's occasional transgressions, particularly after drinking, have landed her in the spotlight, and after being arrested for being drunk and disorderly once, she admitted to police that she was 'like an animal' when boozing.
Then there was an incident at a boxing match, when her protective instincts towards young Phil saw her get involved in a melee with rowdy spectators.
But her commitment to young Phil and the rest of her close-knit family is unquestionable, as many of those who watched Phil, 24, grow up pointed out.
Foden was brought up nearby in a humble end-of terrace house on Grenville Street, close to Stockport County Football Club, where many locals who know the family also expressed anger at the abuse aimed at Claire.
