Boy gutted as his Phil Foden hair dye job leaves him 'looking more like Phillip Schofield'

A ten-year-old boy hoping to look like football hero Phil Foden was gutted after his hair dye job left him looking "more like Phillip Schofield".

The Manchester City star dyed his hair blonde prior to the Euros - a move which saw him likened to Paul Gascoigne.

Little Harry Reidy used to have long locks more reminiscent of Jack Grealish - and even pulled them back with a hairband to look like the star.

But when Foden revealed the England squad would all dye their hair blonde if they win the European Championship, Harry decided to get on board.

With the help of mum Kellie, 42, a postal delivery worker, he lopped off his locks and attempted to dye it peroxide blonde, on Friday.

Unfortunately, it came out grey, and the Tottenham supporter schoolboy's family joked he looked more like the This Morning presenter.

Kellie from Coventry, Warwickshire, said: “It was so funny!

“We were like, ‘you actually look like Phillip Schofield'.

“I don’t think Harry even knows who Phillip is.

“We just couldn’t stop laughing."
