Aston Villa are preparing to offer a new contract to Morgan Rogers, almost a year after his last deal signed in November 2024. The 23-year-old striker, named PFA Young Player of the Year last season, was one of the most dangerous young players in Europe last season and joined the England team under Thomas Tuchel. According to the Daily Mailhis new contract should bring his salary to almost 114,000 euros per week, bringing him closer to the club’s biggest earners like Emiliano Martinez and Youri Tielemans. This extension comes as Rogers attracted interest from Chelsea and Tottenham.
Arriving at Villa for €9.4 million in January 2024, after impressing Unai Emery in the build-up to an FA Cup match against Middlesbrough, the 23-year-old attacking midfielder has quickly established himself as one of the club’s best players. Author of a remarkable season, he contributed to the journey to the quarter-finals of the Champions League and remains an important element for the England team with a view to the World Cup. His extension joins those of Matty Cash and John McGinn, strengthening a Villa which is starting to find its best level after a difficult start to the season.
