Milner Presented An MBE For Services To Football And Charity

  

Liverpool skipper James Milner has been presented an MBE for his services to football and charity. 

The Liverpool club website released a statement regarding the honour.

"The Liverpool vice-captain has been recognised for his career in the professional game that has spanned nearly two decades.

"Having started out as a youngster with his boyhood club Leeds United, Milner has also represented Manchester City, Newcastle United, Aston Villa and Swindon Town. 

"He is a multiple Premier League, Emirates FA Cup and League Cup winner, while lifting the Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup during his time at Anfield.

"Away from the pitch, he set up the James Milner Foundation to promote healthy recreation for young people in the UK.

"The charity focuses on the development, improvement and provision of opportunities in sports, while also providing financial assistance to young people in need of support with health and education.

"The foundation hosts an annual ball and auction to raise funds and, in 2019, crossed the milestone of £1m raised."
