Arsenal lead race for Aston Villa winger Morgan Rogers as Chelsea also eyes £100m deal
Morgan Rogers, the 23‑year‑old Aston Villa winger, is widely reported as Arsenal's top target in the summer transfer window. The club is prepared to make an approach, with a possible fee reaching £100 million, and Rogers has expressed admiration for fellow England international Marcus Rashford, saying he dreams of matching his level.
Chelsea are also actively pursuing Rogers, with sources describing the Blues as "obsessed" with securing the player. While the club is working on a deal, Arsenal remains the preferred destination for Rogers, who has not rejected Chelsea but would rather join the Gunners. Aston Villa have indicated they are willing to sell for the right price, but no agreement has been reached yet.
