​Aston Villa, Crystal Palace keen to sign Liverpool veteran Milner

Aston Villa and Crystal Palace are eager to sign Liverpool midfielder James Milner.

The veteran midfielder, who can also play as a full-back, is out of contract with the Reds in the summer.

The 36-year-old has played an important role for the team this season, but is likely to seek a new challenge in the last stage of his career.

Milner is holding talks with Liverpool about a renewal, but the promise of first team football at Villa or Palace may turn him towards an exit, per Ekrem Konur.

Milner has played for the likes of Leeds United, Newcastle United, and Liverpool during a career spanning two decades.
