Liverpool and Chelsea want to sign Aston Villa attacking midfielder Morgan Rogers.
The 23-year-old is highly regarded in England and is considered one of the best young talents in the Premier League. He was outstanding for Aston Villa last season and he has the potential to become a world-class player.
According to Fichajes, it could cost around €80m (£70m).
Morgan Rogers is a complete striker
Former Manchester United star Roy Keane called him a “nightmare” for rival players because of his style of play.
The 23-year-old is capable of playing multiple attacking roles and is an expert when it comes to creating opportunities for his teammates and finding the back of the net. His ability to take on multiple roles and create opportunities for his teammates makes him a difficult player to deal with.
He can operate centrally and link the midfield to the attack. Alternatively, he can play on the flanks, taking on defenders and beating them in one-on-one situations.
Liverpool and Chelsea could use Rogers
It’s no surprise that Liverpool and Chelsea like him. They could show more creativity in the final third. Florian Wirtz has not lived up to expectations so far, and Alexis Mac Allister has also struggled this season. Liverpool need more advantage in midfield.
As for Chelsea, they are too reliant on Cole Palmer for creativity in the final third. Adding Rogers would be a wise move. The 23-year-old could transform them in the future. Rogers scored 8 goals and had 10 assists in the league last season. His numbers could improve if he plays for a better team.
The opportunity to join some of the biggest clubs in the world will be very exciting for him. Liverpool and Chelsea will be able to provide him with the platform to challenge for major trophies. It will be interesting to see where it ends up.
