US EditionMilner Extends Brighton Contract with Premier League Appearances Record in Sight
- In June 2025, 39-year-old midfielder James Milner renewed his deal with Brighton & Hove Albion for an additional year.
- The extension follows Milner's injury-limited 2024-25 season, where he made only four league appearances due to an August injury that curtailed his playtime.
- Milner joined Brighton after his Liverpool contract ended in summer 2023, and Brighton finished eighth last season missing European qualification.
- Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler expressed his satisfaction at having James back this season, highlighting the important role his experience plays in supporting the younger members of the team.
- Milner, who debuted in 2002 for Leeds United and has 638 Premier League appearances, aims to surpass Gareth Barry's 653-game record and play past his 40th birthday in January 2026.
