James Milner has agreed a one-year contract extension with Brighton.
Milner, who will turn 40 next January, is 15 appearances behind Gareth Barry’s Premier League record of 653.
Brighton announced the deal on Friday, which will see the midfielder stay at the Seagulls for a third season.
The former Liverpool and Manchester City star wants to keep playing into his 40s after fighting back from a knee injury and complications that threatened to end his glittering career.
Milner, who has made 61 appearances for England, the last one coming in 2016, feared his career was over after undergoing knee surgery in December.
