Morgan Rogers would be open to leaving Aston Villa this summer with Manchester United and Arsenal keen
Morgan Rogers would be open to leaving Aston Villa this summer with Manchester United and Arsenal keen Aston Villa attacker Morgan Rogers would be open to leaving Unai Emery’s team this summer with the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United keen, according to the Sun . The Emirates Stadium club are long-standing admirers of the Villa star as Mikel Arteta looks to keep bolstering his attack. Man United are also in the mix for Rogers, who has an understanding with bosses at the Midlands club that this summer is probably the right time to part ways.
The likes of Liverpool and Chelsea also like the 23-year-old, and more suitors are likely to emerge for his services in the summer. Villa could be open to selling Rogers given their financial situation after UEFA fined them last summer for breaching their Financial Fair Play rules. They sold Jacob Ramsey to Newcastle United in a £40 million deal last summer to stay afloat the profit and sustainability rules (PSR) and missing out on Champions League football could force them to part with Rogers.
He signed a six-year deal last November and a deal for him is likely to exceed £80m or even surpass the £100m club record sale of Jack Grealish to Manchester City in 2021. The club are fourth in the league table after 31 games and four or five more wins would get them into the elite European competition next term, but Rogers could still look to leave. He wants to be challenging for the major trophies every season and is hoping Villa will not stand in his way if the right offer comes in.
The England international will fancy his chances of starting regularly at one of the big wigs after a return of ten goals and seven assists in 44 appearances so far this term. He ended last season with 14 goals and 16 assists and will hope a stellar performance at the World Cup with the Three Lions in the summer would attract more top clubs to him.
