In the early morning of May 2, Beijing time, Milton Keynes, who had just entered the League One promotion play-off, officially announced that he had renewed his contract with the 37-year-old main left-back and team captain Dean Levington for a year, and since entering the Wimbledon first team in 2002, Levington had played 883 games for Wimbledon, who was renamed Milton Keynes that year, and the last time Milton Keynes was promoted to the Championship, it was Levington, who was already the captain at the time, to open the final round twice, helping the team to lock up the promotion qualification after the big victory.
In the 46 rounds of League One this season, Levington made 44 appearances on all fronts, making a total of 3909 minutes, ranking fourth in The Milton Keynes, behind only two centre-backs O'Hara and Darling, plus homegrown striker Tween. Therefore, as Levington said in an interview with Sky Sports, he still has the strength to play wonderful football, so he does not consider teaching for the time being, but continues to play.
Speaking of coaching, it's funny, four days before the start of the season, because head coach Russell Martin was poached by Championship side Swansea City, Milton Keynes temporarily decided to let captain Levington temporarily take over the managership. As a result, Levington led the team to the first round of League One in the coaching bench, witnessing the team's high-score draw with Bolton Wanderers in two leads. It was after that game that Milton Keynes decided on his current manager, Manning.
Under Manning's tutelage, Milton Keynes was promoted to the second place in the table after the 42nd round, but unfortunately, the subsequent wave of two consecutive defeats made them unable to suppress Rotherham, lost the direct promotion qualification, and could only play in the play-offs. When it comes to play-offs, Milton Keynes is no stranger, in 2019, they officially returned from League Two to League One through the play-offs, and in 2015, they won the League One runner-up and directly promoted to the Championship, in the final round of that season, Milton Keynes went on a big shooting at home, 5-1 tyrannical Joville City, the captain Ofele Levington, who has not scored in 38 rounds, gavel to the head of the club, and scored twice to help the team lock in the promotion qualification.
As of the final five-goal win over Plymouth at the end of the season, Levington have played 883 games for Milton Keynes, including 557 League One, 136 League Two, 75 Championship games (and their predecessors) and eight play-offs. He has played in 768 professional league games, ranking 12th of all England professionals, currently at the top of the table is England legendary goalkeeper Hilton, while of all Premier League players, the league-highest number of appearances in Bari is 653.
