Liverpool to sign James Milner from man city.

Liverpool have agreed a deal to sign Manchester City midfielder James Milner, subject to a medical.

Personal terms have been agreed, and the 29-year-old will join on a free transfer on July 1 after his City contract expires.

Liverpool are understood to have beaten off competition from Arsenal for his signature.

The England international will sign a long-term deal at Anfield after winning two Premier League titles, an FA Cup and a League Cup during his five-year spell at the Etihad Stadium.

Milner is expected to help fill the void left by Steven Gerrard, who is leaving after 17 years at the club to move to LA Galaxy this summer.

Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher believes that the player could replace Gerrard as Liverpool’s captain: “I have no doubt one reason he's joining is to play in a more central role rather than out wide," Carragher wrote on Kicca.
