James Milner had a highly successful last season with Villa and is keen to face new challenge this season. There are at least two reasons Milner is interested to join
Secondly, City has already become a force to make serious bid for a top four finish, if not the Premier League title, next season. Any player would love to play in Champions League and Milner is no different.
Most importantly, Milner knows he would be an outright first choice for City manager Roberto Mancini who would like to feature him in City’s midfield alongside Yaya Toure and David Silva.
Overall, it looks less likely that Martin O'Neill would be able to keep Milner for the next season, considering City’s financial ability. However, O'Neill can then claim City’s out-of-favor midfielder Stephen Ireland in a part swap part cash deal which City would not mind to accept.
