We have been linked with Manchester City’s James Milner in the past, and the England international is looking increasingly likely to leave the Premier League champions at the end of the season, according to the Express.

The 29-year-old is coming to the end of his current contract, and is allegedly concerned over his future at the Etihad.
While he has enjoyed an excellent season at the club, starting 21 games in all competitions, he is well aware that his frequent first team opportunities have been down largely to the injuries and absences of key players.
If he pens a new deal he will likely want some assurances regarding first team football, something Manuel Pellegrini might not be able to give him.

We are reportedly in competition with Liverpool for his signature, with Milner currently weighing up his options before making a decision.
If he is looking for a move away then money is clearly not an issue, with a starting berth in the side far more of a concern. In all honesty however, it’s difficult to see him getting much more game time with us than he does at City.
The versatile star is a workhorse, but is arguably not as talented as the Arsenal stars he would be competing with. He would be an excellent addition to the squad, but I can’t see him pinning down a regular starting spot.
