On November 10, 2002, he made his debut as a substitute for Jason Wilcox in a match against West Ham United 6 years later. With his debut, he became the Premier League’s second-youngest player ever, at the age of 16.

Milner became the Premier League’s youngest player when he scored against Sunderland in December of the same year. However, James Vaughan broke his record in 2005.

Milner had a good year in 2002. Many of his performances were lauded and admired by other professional athletes, coaches, commentators, and viewers. As a result, on February 10, 2003, Leeds offered Milner a 5-year contract. Leeds, on the other hand, had to deal with a slew of negative media coverage. As a result, the team lost many of its first-team players.

As a result, Leeds was relegated to the Championship, sparking speculation about Milner’s future at the club. Milner initially turned down offers from Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, and Everton. However, due to financial difficulties, Leeds sold it to Newcastle United for an initial fee of £3.6 million. He was unhappy about leaving the club, but he wanted to do what was best for the club.

Milner made his Newcastle United debut during the club’s pre-season tour in Asia, scoring his first goal against Kitchee in a 1–1 draw in Hong Kong. He played in the 2004 Premier League and made his European debut for Newcastle that same year.

His first UEFA Cup match was against Israel’s Bnei Sakhnin. Milner was enjoying himself at Newcastle until manager Bobby Robson was replaced by Graeme Souness. He started 13 league games but did not make his Premier League debut for Newcastle until April 2005.
