Liverpool Transfer News: Latest on James Milner and Asier Illarramendi Rumours

Liverpool have reportedly won the race to sign Manchester City star James Milner when the 2014/15 season comes to a close.

That’s according to David Anderson of the Daily Mirror, who says that the England international will snub the advances of Arsenal in favour of switching to Anfield.

Milner is out of contract at the Etihad Stadium at the end of the current campaign, and although he’s been given plenty of first-team chances this term, it’s seemingly time to move on.

Although primarily deployed as a winger, the 29-year-old’s favoured position is in the middle of the park, and he’ll be hoping to fill the hole left by skipper Steven Gerrard when he departs.
