Chelsea Target Signs, Will Wear Jersey Number 7 And Earn £150,000-A-Week

All is set for Milner to join Liverpool at the end of his contract with Manchester City, and Daily Star are reporting that he will be wearing the iconic number 7 jersey. Liverpool has always reserved the no 7 shirt for players who have gone on to become club legends. The likes of Suarez, Kenny Dalglish and Steve McManaman have won this number and with Milner set to wear this jersey, there is hope on the part of Kop faithful’s that Milner would come good, though he has been wearing this jersey number at Manchester City.

The English midfielder who is highly regarded for his versatility, has played various positions since he started his career. He has also been used as a central midfielder, a striker and as an emergency right-back. Just this past season, Milner has been a key man for Manchester City as he averaged 32 appearances and scored 5 goals.

While Manchester City fans rue their loss, Kop faithful’s are already hailing his signing. Even his teammates are looking forward to working with him. For Milner, this is another chapter in his career and hopefully, he will win trophies with Liverpool. While Citizens are bidding farewell to a man who has given 5 years to them, they will be hoping that losing him won’t come back to bite them in the behind.
