Morgan Rogers could be on his way to Stamford Bridge
Aston Villa have reportedly accepted a £117m bid for Morgan Rogers from Chelsea.
Rogers, who is currently with the England squad in Miami for their World Cup third/fourth play-off with France, is set for a medical on Monday ahead of signing a six-year contract at Stamford Bridge, with the option of a further year.
The 23-year-old has enjoyed a rapid rise at Villa Park following his move from Middlesbrough in January 2024 and helped fire Villa to a top-four finish and the Europa League last season.
Villa, who also sold Youri Tielemans to Manchester United for £35m earlier in the week, feel the fee represents a good deal.
