Veterans Milner and Welbeck sign new Brighton deals

Former England internationals James Milner and Danny Welbeck have both signed new contracts with Brighton.

Midfielder Milner, 38, has agreed a one-year deal with the Seagulls while 33-year-old forward Welbeck has put pen to paper on a two-year contract.

Earlier in the season Milner moved up to second on the Premier League's all-time appearance list and now needs to play in 20 more top-flight games to overtake Gareth Barry's record of 653.

The veteran has not been able to add to that total since 30 January having struggled with injuries but "will be ready" for the start of the 2024-25 campaign.
