Arsenal are reportedly weighing up a surprise move for Aston Villa’s rising star Morgan Rogers following a knee injury to Kai Havertz that has left the Gunners short in attacking options.
Rogers, 23, enjoyed a breakout season last term, scoring 8 goals and providing 11 assists in the Premier League, with additional contributions in cup competitions. His versatility across all forward positions has caught the attention of Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, who is keen to bolster his squad ahead of the new campaign.
Sources suggest Arteta personally congratulated Rogers after he won the PFA Young Player of the Year award, further fueling speculation of a potential transfer. However, Aston Villa are reluctant to sell and have reportedly placed an £80 million price tag on the England international
Arsenal are also exploring alternative options, including Bayern Munich’s Leroy Sané and Feyenoord’s Igor Paixão, but Rogers remains a top target due to his Premier League experience and dynamic playing style.
With the transfer window heating up, fans will be watching closely to see if Arsenal can pull off this ambitious swoop.
