Aston Villa Tie Morgan Rogers to New Deal Through 2031

The extension signals a retention-first strategy at Villa.

Overview

  • A club statement confirmed the England forward has signed a long-term contract that runs until 2031.
  • Rogers, 23, joined from Middlesbrough in February 2024 and quickly became a key figure under Unai Emery.
  • He earned an England debut in November 2024 and received peer-voted PFA Young Player of the Season recognition last season.
  • Rogers called Villa the "perfect environment" to develop and Emery hailed him as "a vital player for the future," according to reports of the announcement.
  • The agreement follows new deals for Matty Cash to 2029 and John McGinn to 2028, reducing the pull of recent outside interest, including from Chelsea.
