"Morgan Rogers has reportedly opened talks with Aston Villa over a new contract amid transfer interest from Chelsea. The England international won the PFA Young Player of the Year award for his superb performances in the Premier League last season, and he makes sense as someone all the top clubs would be looking at. As reported here, Chelsea are keen on Rogers as they eye more top young attacking players for 2026, but perhaps the 23-year-old could end up staying at Villa Park."
"This news could be frustrating for Chelsea fans, but one imagines the Blues will continue to monitor developments in case talks with Villa don't go anywhere positive. Still, CFC also have other targets on their list, such as Juventus' young Turkish talent Kenan Yildiz, and Lyon's Belgian winger Malick Fofana. Rogers has the benefit of being proven in the Premier League, though, so it could make sense to make the former Middlesbrough youngster a priority."
Morgan Rogers has opened contract talks with Aston Villa amid reported interest from Chelsea. The 23-year-old England international won the PFA Young Player of the Year for his strong Premier League performances last season. Villa are keen to reward Rogers for his high performance levels and have begun negotiations to keep him at Villa Park. Chelsea remain interested and are also pursuing other young attacking options such as Kenan Yildiz and Malick Fofana. Villa have had a difficult start to the season and a board-level change with Monchi's departure. Retaining Rogers would strengthen Villa's present and future prospects.
