Aston Villa midfielder a transfer option for Chelsea | OneFootball

Chelsea have included Morgan Rogers on a shortlist of potential transfer options this summer.

The West Londoners want to bring in another versatile attacker before September’s deadline and Rogers is a player under consideration.

Chelsea concede prising the midfielder from Aston Villa would be difficult but Flashscore are reporting that the Blues are prepared to explore a deal.

Like Chelsea, Villa were fined for breaching UEFA’s Financial Fair Play rules and could require a big sale before investment this summer.

Rogers has emerged as one of the Premier League’s best young talents since arriving at Villa Park from Middlesbrough in January 2024.

The 22-year-old scored 14 goals and provided 15 assists across all competitions last season, form which has earned Rogers a role in the senior England squad. He has been nominated for the PFA Young Player of the Year and is among the frontrunners for the prize, which will be announced next month.

Given his key role in Unai Emery’s plans, Villa would only entertain huge offers for the midfielder.

Rogers is not the only player Chelsea are considering, with West Ham’s Mohammed Kudus, Lyon winger Malick Fofana and Manchester United’s Alejandro Garnacho also options.
