Milner is still strong, and he can renew his contract with Brighton at the age of 39 to 40

Premier League team Brighton officially announced that it will renew its contract with the team's midfielder Milner for one year until June 2026, which means that the 39-year-old England veteran can play in his career to cross the 40s mark, which is indeed very strong.

Milner left Liverpool, who had played for 8 years two years ago and joined Brighton. He only played 24 games in total in two seasons, mainly because of his long-term recovery last season, but Brighton is still willing to keep him. Head coach Huzeler praised Milner: "I'm glad Milner will continue to stay in the team next season. His experience is very important to the team, especially to help young players."

Mialna can be said to be one of the legendary players in England football. She has already represented Leeds United in the Premier League at the age of 16. In December 2002, she was 16 years old and 356. She once became the youngest goal-scoring player in Premier League history until she was broken by then Everton striker James Vaughan in 2005.

Milner has played for Newcastle United, Aston Villa and other teams, and helped Manchester City and Liverpool win the Premier League championship. He has played 638 Premier League games in his career, second only to former Manchester City midfielder Barry, who has played 653 games in history. After Milner renews his contract, he is expected to break Barry's Premier League record.
