Chelsea makes “wonderful” star of 78 million pounds sterling their superior target

Although everything went silent on the ground for Chelsea, you can bet your lower dollar that they will continue to be occupied on the transfers market.

It has been almost a week since the blues were crowned world champions, to the surprise of many, demolishing Paris Saint-Germain 3-0 in the club World Cup final last Sunday, Cole Palmer marking twice at the Metlife Stadium.

The Enzo Maresca team will no longer be reviewed before they welcome Bayer Leverkusen respectively, then AC Milan at Stamford Bridge for the pre-season friendly matches on August 8 and 10, a week before the start of the Premier League season, but how many new players will have to reveal by then?

Chelsea search for more attackers

As we have expected in the Todd Boehly era, Chelsea has already made a lot of signatures this summer, as the table below documents them.

After the arrivals of Eastern Both Willian, Jamie Gittens and Kendry Páez, to add to existing members of the Pedro Neto team, Palmer, Christopher Nkunku, Raheem Sterling, Tyrique George and João Félix, just to say that Maresca has many wide attack options.

Nevertheless, that did not prevent Chelsea from continuing to recruit in the past, and, after Noni Madueke was sold at Arsenal for 52 million pounds sterling this week, it would not shock anyone if they reinvested this money in the team.

Thus, according to reports in Spain, Chelsea is preparing to take a step for Morgan Rogers, making the Aston Villa midfielder, which is valued at around 78 million pounds Sterling, their number one priority.

They add that the “reluctance to negotiate” could prove to be a stumbling block, although, speaking on the Podcast Weekly Guardian Football, Dan Bardell said that he would expect Villa should sell a “ great player ” this summer to comply with Chelsea?

How Morgan Rogers would improve Chelsea

Rogers joined Aston Villa of Middlesbrough for 15 million pounds sterling that recently in January 2024, but certainly burst into the stage in the midlands.

Last season, the 22 -year -old scored 14 goals and recorded 13 assists in all competitions, the former manager of England Glenn Hoddlers calling him “wonderful” and “excellent” after his first international start against Latvia in Wembley in March.

Kurosh Moghtader of Total Football Analysis claims that he is a “superb talent” which operates the best as an offensive midfielder.

In the meantime, Ryan Benson of The Analyst of Opta, believes that he was one of the most remarkable players ” in the Premier League last season, adding that his disturbing “ stripes and a tightly stored legs ” make him a joy to look “, describing him as robust but graceful, like a bull that rages on ice skates.

But how does he compare himself at the start of Madueke?

Discover.

As the table below describes, it is Rogers who presents himself in the lead for the vast majority of attack statistics, which suggests that it would be a huge upgrade for Chelsea at the upper end of the terrain.

The star of Aston Villa has accumulated 4,753 minutes for the club and the country, with all the matches of the Premier League, the Champions League and the FA Cup, except one, which testifies to its sustainability.

Nevertheless, even on a basis compared to Madueke, Rogers has figures of better figures in terms of chances created and dribbles, so it would surely be an excellent addition for Chelsea, even if a very expensive.
