Another Jack Grealish deal? Aston Villa could 'ask for £100m' in Morgan Rogers transfer talks as Unai Emery seeks to keep England star

FBL-EUR-C1-PSG-ASTON VILLA

Aston Villa feel no pressure to part company with young star Morgan Rogers, with the club telling suitors the player is not for sale.

WHAT HAPPENED?

A report by Mail Sport suggests the club would demand an offer in excess of £100m before they even consider an approach. That was the figure they commanded from Manchester City for Jack Grealish in the summer of 2021.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Rogers has played in Europe, logged double figures for goals and assists last term, and at just 22-years-old, is four years younger than Grealish was when he left Villa Park. The youngster is under contract until 2030, he is currently earning £75,000 per week.

DID YOU KNOW?

Villa may still have to contend with the Premier League's spending rules. They are in a much stronger position than 12 months ago, when they were forced into selling Douglas Luiz to Juventus to avoid a 10-point deduction for a possible PSR breach. However, Champions League prize money and the £70m sale of Jhon Duran to Al-Nassr likely leaves them in a stronger position this time round.
