James Milner will remain in the Premier League – and also has a record in mind for his future employer alongside a former companion.
He was Mister Anfield personified – now he has James Milner following his departure from FC Liverpool found a new sporting home.
The former England international (61 caps until 2016) changes within the Premier League from the Reds to Brighton & Hove Albion, as both clubs officially announced.
Milner has been handed a one-year contract with the Seagulls with an option for one more – and is also reunited with former Liverpool team-mate Adam Lallana.
The 37-year-old midfielder, who came to Anfield a few months before team manager Jürgen Klopp in the summer of 2015 and has since won the English Championship, the FA Cup, the Champions League and the Club World Cup, had more or less been a reserve player .
In addition to Milner, midfielders Naby Keita (Werder Bremen) and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (target unknown) are also leaving the Reds.
In Brighton he can Milner now break another record: With 617 games, the veteran is the third-most-capped player in England’s star league behind Gareth Barry (653) and Ryan Giggs (632).
