Report: James Milner to leave Manchester City

Manchester City are reportedly prepared to sell James Milner in the January window.

The England international is out of contract at the end of the season and it is understood that talks over a new deal at the Etihad Stadium have stalled.

According to the Daily Star, City would accept a bid in the region of £5m for the versatile midfielder, with a number of Premier League clubs believed to be monitoring proceedings.

Milner, 28, joined City from Aston Villa in 2010, but has largely struggled to hold down a regular first-team spot with the current English champions.
