Aston Villa Reach Agreement to Extend Morgan Rogers’ Contract to 2031

The deal reinforces Villa’s plan to lock in core talent following heavy summer interest.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report an agreement in principle on a one‑year extension, with the England international expected to sign formally in the coming days.
  • The new terms include a major pay rise making Rogers one of Villa’s highest earners, though reported figures vary, with estimates ranging from just over £100,000 per week to about £150,000 and one report citing £120,000.
  • Talks were handled by director of football operations Damian Vidagany and agent Sam Kohansal, with co‑owner Nassef Sawiris also involved according to reports.
  • Rogers joined from Middlesbrough in 2024, delivered a breakout 2024/25 season, and has since become a regular in Thomas Tuchel’s England setup.
  • The agreement strengthens Villa’s negotiating position after interest from Chelsea, Tottenham and Liverpool, and follows recent extensions for John McGinn, Matty Cash, Boubacar Kamara and Lucas Digne.
