James Milner Wants To Leave Aston Villa, But Man City Must Pay More – Martin O’Neill
By Ollie Irish
It’s official, or at least Martin O’Neill has confirmed it: James Milner wants to leave Aston Villa this summer, which means Man City have to come up with a number that MoN and Villa are happy with.
“I had a conversation with James before the World Cup and he intimated that he’d like to go,” said O’Neill.
“I’d imagine things will be resolved in foreseeable future.
“City made an offer but it did not meet our valuation.
“I’m sure matters will be resolved soon. James is back next week having had extended holiday.”
It’s a big blow for the Midlands club.
What figure do you think Villa would be happy with? I value Milner at around £18-20m, but expect Villa will want a wee bit more than that. How much do you think he’s worth?

Were he a player on the continent he’d probably be worth £10-15mil, tops. The inflated prices of English players is getting a touch obscene.
Villa paid £11m for him, and with City doing the bidding I suspect they’ll want double of that.
Cant blame him, honestly who would want to be stuck at Aston Villa?
im not even sure why city need him we have just got silva an yaya. he is a good player no doute about that but im not sure if hes world class an thats what city want. hes worth about 24 25 mill i think.
