Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could extend Brighton tenure
M/DBrighton & Hove Albion
May 14, 2025
Milner could sign a new contract with Brighton in the summer, according to The Athletic.

Brighton are in talks with the 39-year-old veteran English midfielder over a new deal with the club. Even though Milner is way past his prime years, Brighton rate him highly due to his positional versatility but also due to what he brings off the pitch. It wouldn't be surprising if Milner returns to Brighton for one more year before calling it a career.
