Aston Villa midfielder Morgan Rogers is reportedly expected to leave the club in the upcoming summer transfer window, with Chelsea and Arsenal both monitoring his situation closely, according to transfer insider Ben Jacobs.
Rogers, who has been one of Villa’s standout attacking performers since establishing himself in Unai Emery’s squad, is said to be admired by several Premier League sides following a breakthrough period that has significantly raised his profile.
Despite his strong connection to the club and positive working relationship with manager Unai Emery, reports suggest that a departure is increasingly likely as interest in his services intensifies.
Jacobs has indicated that Rogers’ future is expected to be one of the key talking points of the summer market, with both CHELSEA and ARSENAL tracking the England youth international’s development closely. The 22-year-old has impressed with his versatility, technical ability, and composure in advanced midfield roles, making him an attractive option for clubs looking to add creativity and depth in attacking areas.
At Villa Park, Rogers has been deployed in a variety of roles under Emery’s tactical system, often drifting between central attacking midfield and wide positions. His ability to operate in tight spaces and contribute both goals and assists has made him an important figure in Villa’s progression as a top-four contender in recent seasons.
Sources close to the situation suggest that while Rogers remains committed to Villa and appreciative of Emery’s role in his development, the growing interest from elite-level clubs could ultimately prove decisive. Chelsea are believed to be in the market for dynamic attacking midfield options as part of their ongoing squad rebuild, while ARSENAL continue to explore additions who can increase creativity and flexibility in the final third.
Aston Villa, for their part, are not actively seeking to sell and would only consider negotiations if a significant offer arrives. The club remain focused on maintaining their competitive status in both domestic and European competitions, and Rogers is seen internally as a key part of that project.
Nevertheless, the expectation in transfer circles is that the situation could evolve quickly once the summer window opens. With interest building and the player’s stock rising, Rogers is increasingly viewed as one of the more notable potential departures from Villa Park.
As it stands, no formal bid has been confirmed, but discussions and scouting activity suggest that both CHELSEA and Arsenal are preparing to test Villa’s resolve in what could become one of the more closely watched transfer battles of the window.
