Post: Although Chelsea and Arsenal are interested in Morgan Rodgers, Villa has no intention of selling

June 18, According to the Daily Mail, although the need to sell players to meet the requirements of the Financial Fairness Act, Villa will reject Chelsea and other teams' interest in Morgan Rodgers this summer.

In the 2024-25 season, Morgan Rodgers performed very well. He scored 14 goals and sent 15 assists, becoming one of the most threatening wing attackers in European football. Chelsea and Arsenal are both clubs that are very interested in Rodgers, but Villa has no intention of selling the 22-year-old England international.

To ensure compliance with the Premier League's profit and sustainability regulations, Villa may sell some players by the end of June. Douglas Luis' transfer to Juventus helped Villa meet financial requirements last summer, and similar deals may be available this year. Leon Pele is no longer a key player in Emery's plan and Saudi Arabia is interested in him, while Jacob Ramsey is believed to be sold for a transfer fee of about £40 million.

Villa coach Emery is more inclined to keep Rodgers and consider selling other players, such as Leon Bailey and Digne. If Rogers eventually leaves, his transfer fee will be regarded as pure profit as he comes from Villa youth training camp. At the same time, Emery hopes to keep Digne, but the Frenchman's contract is only one year left and has not received a renewal offer. Atletico Madrid is a club that is very interested in the French.
