Chelsea Seen as Frontrunners for Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers
Villa’s £80m stance plus reluctance to sell in January leave any transfer uncertain.
Overview
- Multiple outlets citing CaughtOffside report Chelsea now lead the pursuit, with PSG and Liverpool monitoring.
- No formal offers have been reported as of Oct. 19, with coverage characterizing interest rather than active negotiations.
- Chelsea’s recruitment staff reportedly view the 23-year-old as a key 2026 addition suited to Enzo Maresca’s plans.
- Aston Villa have set an asking price near £80m and signaled Rogers will not be sold easily.
- Rogers produced 14 goals and 16 assists last season, while earlier links to Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester City have cooled over valuation or lack of talks.
