Foden, 20, and 18-year-old Manchester United winger Mason Greenwood have been dropped from the Three Lions squad.
This comes after it was revealed they invited women back to their hotel room in Reykjavik following their debut for England against Iceland.
The pair could be hit with fines, as they have been sent back to England.
He has taken to his social media space to apologise for his actions.
"Following the story which has emerged today regarding my actions in Iceland, I want to make a full apology," Foden wrote in a note published on Twitter.
"I apologise to Gareth Southgate, to my England team-mates, to the staff, supporters, and also to my club and my family.
"When I was called up by Gareth for these games, my first reaction was that of immense pride. To pull on that shirt for the senior team in my England debut was an incredible privilege.
"I am a young player with a lot to learn, but I am aware of the huge responsibility I have in representing Manchester City and England at this level.
"On this occasion, I made a poor decision and my behaviour didn’t meet the standards expected of me.
"I breached Covid-19 protocols put in place to protect myself and my England colleagues. As a consequence I will now miss the opportunity to travel to Denmark with the squad, and that hurts.
"I will learn a valuable lesson from this error in judgement and I wish Gareth and the team good luck this week."
