When his long and illustrious playing career finally comes to an end, with which club will James Milner be most inextricably linked?
For many, it will be Liverpool. Milner made 230 Premier League appearances for the Reds, which gave him a serious leg-up in his bid to become the competition’s most capped player.
And that finally came to pass in February 2026, when Milner started for Brighton in a game against Brentford – his 654th Premier League appearance, which broke the previous record held by Gareth Barry.
