Football Transfer Update: Manchester City trying to bag Villa’s Star Player, James Milner
Manchester City Football Club is getting their nick names as the vultures of the football world. As their current spending on players is about to cross the one hundred and thirty million pounds mark.
It is rumoured that Manchester City is about to announce that they have bought James Milner, the English midfielder from Aston villa.
Aston Villa is a bitter rival of Manchester City in the Premier league and it seems that the vultures seem to have bagged their star player.
The twenty four year old Aston Villa play maker has been the topic of much intense transfer rumours and speculations.
His first transfer offer was from Manchester United for twenty four million pounds and now has received another offer from Manchester City for a whopping amount of thirty million pounds.
This is mostly due to his performance last season, James Milner won the PFA Young players of the year award and he won this by getting ahead of players like Cesc Fabregas, Joe Hart and Wayne Rooney.
Till now, it does seem likely that Milner will move to Manchester City and will start training at the Eastland’s soon.
Some are already surprised that Milner hasn’t already met up with other Manchester City Super Stars.
Still a factor that brings a twist in this whole transfer saga is that in the opening match of Aston Villa against West Ham.
Club Villa was under the supervision of Kevin MacDonald, who is the assistant coach and has temporarily taken charge ever since Martin O’ Neil left at the start of the season.
Still even with the sudden departure of their boss, the team still managed to win by a score of three to nil against West Ham and rumours are that Randy Lerner, the Aston Villa owner is about to bring on Diego Maradona, as Aston Villa’s new boss.
It is widely known about Milner that he is one of the most professional players out there. He is a brilliant player and even in the recent game against West Ham, he scored a goal.
Football is not only about money and which club you play for, It is so much more than that and it’s a lot about playing regular first team football.
Milner knows that he is most likely to keep on doing that, while staying at Aston Villa compared to Manchester City.
At Aston Villa, every one treats him with kindness and respects him and the fans love him and his talents are well respected.
Some could even say that both James Milner and Aston Villa need each other, Stiliyan Petrov, who is both Milner’s team mate and captain at Villa, has pointed Milner out for his professional play and has said that he should remain with Aston Villa for the whole season.
The captain told the media that when someone is a good player, other clubs are ready to pay twenty to thirty million for you and there is not much a player can do about that but James Milner is giving everything to the club like he always does.
He further went on to say that, Milner is an absolute pro, other players should learn from him, and that Milner deserves the fame and the credit that people give him. He is an honest player, you don’t see a lot of them, and he always plays with heart.
He said that Milner was flattered with the offer but when you see so many fans supporting you, it is hard for a player to leave the club like that and right now, it is not confirmed that he is leaving.
People say that the most logical thing for Milner would be to stay with Aston Villa and he may just as well decide to do so.
