Ahead of a summer of upheaval behind the scenes with new signings aplenty expected to arrive during the upcoming window, it’s a shame to think we’ll be losing such a key part of the dressing room and a standard setter to boot.

Whatever his next move, we at Empire of the Kop want to wish Milner all the best for the future.
