Soccer Betting Lines

08/27/2008 - Newcastle, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Newcastle United have been rocked by the news that winger James Milner has handed in a transfer request at St James' Park.

The 22-year-old has been with the Magpies since the summer of 2004, when he moved to Tyneside for $6.6 million from Leeds United, but he has been linked with a return to Aston Villa.

England Under-21 international Milner spent the whole of the 2005-06 season on loan at Villa Park, scoring three times in 33 appearances for the Midlands club.

A statement on the club's official website read: "Newcastle United can confirm that it has received a written transfer request from James Milner.

"The club is very disappointed that James sees his footballing future as being away from St. James' Park. He is a valued member of the squad and it is only a year ago that he signed an improved long-term contract."
