Liverpool midfielder James Milner has admitted he could have played for Everton.
The former Leeds United and Newcastle United star, who also played for Manchester City, was offered a trial by the Toffees when he was only 10.
However, he was then ghosted by the club and eventually signed for boyhood Leeds.
Speaking to the official Liverpool Football Club podcast, We Are Liverpool, he stated: "I was playing for a local team in Leeds and I was scouted by Everton.
"I was scouted by Everton and asked to go on a trial game, it was just before Christmas time - when I was 10, I think it was - and the game got called off because of snow.
"I never heard anything and Leeds came on three months later, February or March time. I went for a trial and, yeah, they signed me then when I was ten years old.
"At that point, like, I hadn't even thought about being a professional footballer, I was just playing at school," Milner admitted "Until they [Leeds] rang, oh yeah, that's something you could do. Before that, I don't know whether I was young, I never thought I wanted to be a footballer here. At that point, I went to Leeds and that was it."
