Former England midfielder James Milner has announced his retirement from football at the age of 40 after a 24-year Premier League career.
Milner announced this in a statement shared on Instagram on Monday.
He stated: “After 24 seasons in the Premier League, it feels like the right time to bring an end to my playing career.
“From making my debut for Leeds, who I supported growing up, at the age of 16 and becoming the Premier League’s youngest scorer, I could never have dreamed of the journey I’ve been on.”

He also helped Liverpool win the Champions League in 2019.
Milner broke the record for the most Premier League appearances while playing for Brighton against Brentford in February, and ends his career with a total of 658.
