Milner has played for six Premier League clubs – Liverpool, Manchester City, Aston Villa, Newcastle United, Leeds United, and current side Brighton and Hove Albion.<\/p>\n
It was at boyhood club Leeds where Milner made his name, becoming the second-youngest player to feature in the Premier League when he made his debut against West Ham aged 16 years and 309 days.<\/p>\n
He also spent time at third-tier Swindon Town on loan – scoring two goals in a short six-game spell.<\/p>\n
After Leeds were relegated, Milner made the switch to Newcastle, before later moving to Villa Park in a \u00a312m deal.<\/p>\n
His form at Aston Villa attracted the attention of England and Milner was called up for the first time by Fabio Capello for a friendly against Netherlands.<\/p>\n
Gaining a reputation as a versatile midfield option, Manchester City brought Milner to the club – winning the FA Cup in his first season and the Premier League a year later.<\/p>\n
The bulk of his appearances then came at Liverpool – where he moved on a free transfer in 2015 – making 230 appearances under Brendan Rodgers and Jurgen Klopp.<\/p>\n
Milner’s greatest triumph came when Liverpool won the Champions League in 2019 and a year later played a key role in helping the club win the Premier League – the Reds’ first league title in 30 years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
