Aston Villa plan improved contract for star just nine months after signing a new deal – as Unai Emery’s side aim to fend off interest from Chelsea

Aston Villa are open to improving the contract of Morgan Rogers in the coming months following his outstanding displays last season.

Rogers was one of the breakout stars of the Premier League last term, scoring 14 goals and producing 15 assists in all competitions to force his way into the full England squad.

Though the 22-year-old signed a new deal only last November, his contributions were so impressive that he drew the attention of top clubs across Europe, with Chelsea continuing to monitor developments.

Villa are under no pressure to sell Rogers and have no intention of doing so at this stage, especially as he has a little less than five years remaining on his current deal.

Yet since Unai Emery took charge in 2022, the club have always been prepared to reward strong performances, with nearly all key players given new deals with improved salaries during his tenure.

Another new deal would also signal to clubs circling Rogers of how central he is to Villa’s plans.
