Brighton close to announcing outgoing Liverpool star James Milner
Brighton & Hove Albion are to make a significant double signing, as they are expected to announce deals for James Milner and Mahmoud Dahoud. Having finished sixth in the league, they will play in the UEFA Europa League next season.
Liverpool confirmed James Milner‘s departure last month, and the experienced midfielder now stands set to join the Seagulls. Additionally, Borussia Dortmund’s Dahoud, who saw himself previously linked with Liverpool, is also part of Brighton’s summer recruitment plans.
Milner’s impending move to Brighton comes as no surprise, with the club emerging as the front-runner for his signature. Known for his professionalism and versatility, the 35-year-old will bring valuable experience and leadership to Roberto de Zerbi’s side.
talkSPORT via ECHO says that Brighton are on the cusp of announcing the capture of both Dahoud and Milner as they look to possess enough quality to impress in Europe. They are expected to lose Moises Caicedo and Alexis Mac Allister – two big holes to fill in midfield.
Milly to the Seagulls
Over the years, Milner has certainly become an embodiment of everything the club stands for. From his tireless work ethic to his versatility across multiple positions, Milner has always given his all for the team, leaving no stone unturned in his pursuit of success.
The 37-year-old has etched his name into Liverpool’s history books, playing an integral role in the club’s recent triumphs. From the unforgettable nights in the UEFA Champions League to lifting the Premier League trophy after a 30-year wait, Milner has surely been there every step of the way, providing invaluable experience and leadership.
Milner’s departure leaves a void not only in Liverpool’s squad but also in the hearts of fans who have grown to admire and respect him. His relentless work rate, selflessness, and unwavering commitment to the cause have made him a beloved figure at Anfield.
As the transfer window opens and the official announcement of Milner’s move to Brighton looms, Liverpool fans will reflect on the countless memories he has provided. Whether it was his tireless midfield performances, crucial goals from the penalty spot, or the times he stepped up in defence during injury crises, Milner consistently gave his all for the badge despite visibly dropping off in performance levels towards the end of his tenure at the Reds.
