Arsenal have opened talks to sign 23-year-old Aston Villa midfielder Morgan Rogers for a reported £80 million.
Arsenal are working on a deal to sign Aston Villa attacking midfielder Morgan Rogers. Reports suggest the Gunners are prepared to pay around £80 million for the 23-year-old.
The London club has already held preliminary talks with the player's representatives. Manager Mikel Arteta is reportedly keen on the move, viewing the youngster as a priority signing to bolster the squad as reigning Premier League champions.
Rogers enjoyed a breakthrough campaign last season, contributing to 16 goals in 37 league appearances. His form also saw him named the Europa League Player of the Season, confirming his status as a standout talent.
However, securing his signature will be difficult. Competition for the Englishman is high, with Chelsea, Manchester United, and Paris Saint-Germain also monitoring his situation closely.
