Aston Villa Open New Morgan Rogers Talks, Reiterate No January Sale

The negotiations signal a push to reward the 23-year-old on improved terms after heavy summer interest from Chelsea and Tottenham.

Overview

  • Morgan Rogers has begun discussions over an improved long-term contract at Aston Villa, according to multiple reports.
  • Aston Villa maintain they do not intend to sell the England international in the January window despite continued monitoring from Chelsea and Tottenham.
  • Rogers is under contract until 2030 after agreeing better terms last November, positioning Villa strongly to deter bids.
  • The club values the attacker at about £80 million, a price point cited when interest was rebuffed during the summer.
  • Football Insider reports Rogers has been unsettled by wage disparities and blocked approaches from major clubs, even as his early-season form has dipped.
