James Milner was 16 years old when he first featured in Leeds United's first-team in 2002.
The Leeds-born youngster from the club's academy was a bright spark in two difficult seasons as the Whites' narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League in 2002/03 before dropping into the Championship the next season.
Milner was subsequently sold to Newcastle for £5million as Leeds struggled with a mountain of debt. He then moved to Aston Villa before major transfers to Manchester City and Liverpool. At the latter two clubs he has won every domestic trophy, as well as the Champions League and Club World Cup with Liverpool. He also featured for England at international tournaments.
