Aston Villa Open Contract Talks With Morgan Rogers, Rule Out January Sale

Villa seek to reward his rise to prominence, deterring suitors in the process.

Overview

  • Football Insider reports the 23-year-old has begun discussions over a bumper new deal, a line echoed by CaughtOffside despite his recent dip in form.
  • Club briefings indicate Villa will not entertain offers in the January window as they consider Rogers central to Unai Emery’s plans.
  • Chelsea and Tottenham explored a summer move that Villa rebuffed, with an internal valuation reported at about £80 million.
  • Interest from those clubs has reportedly cooled as scouts wait to see a return to last season’s levels following a slower start.
  • Rogers produced eight goals and 10 assists in the 2024–25 league campaign and won the PFA Young Player of the Year award.
