Aston Villa attacker Morgan Rogers has once again been linked with Chelsea, with rumour site Football Insider claiming the Blues will have to compete with Man U for his signature.

“His price tag will be pretty hefty, it’ll be well in excess of £100million probably if somebody wanted to sign him,” journalist Pete O’Rourke writes.

“Because he’s under a long-term contract until 2031. But even with that price tag, it won’t scare people off, some of the big clubs in the Premier League and across Europe will be ready to test Villa’s resolve in the summer.”

Chelsea’s Rogers hopes fade into the background

Sadly this may be the last time we hear this sort of rumour. Signing Rogers was probably a pipe dream anyway given his price tag and our current transfer model.

But one thing that certainly won’t be happening is Rogers trading Champions League football with Aston Villa (which looks fairly likely) for non-Champions League football with Chelsea (which looks very likely).

You can forget signing any players on his level if we don’t make a miracle comeback.

In other news…

Enzo Fernandez’s move away from Chelsea feels more and more like a case of “where to” than “if,” with more updates from Ben Jacobs today.

Josh Acheampong is not perfect, but at least he tries his best, which is more than you can say for the player taking his place right now.
