James Milner is seeking a long-term deal with Manchester City.
The Mirror says Milner wants to spend the rest of his career with Manchester City - and that's the reason why the England midfielder is refusing to sign a new contract.
City have offered Milner a three-year package worth £80,000-a-week.
But the England midfielder, 29, is demanding a four-year agreement to stay.
