Aston Villa fans set Morgan Rogers fee as exit latest drops - 'Surely it has to be'

Aston Villa are preparing for the potential departure of Morgan Rogers this summer.

The attacking midfielder has continued to impress since his move from Middlesbrough in 2024, and now sits among the Premier League's best.

As a result, Rogers has attracted interest across both the Premier League and Europe, with champions Arsenal said to be the favourites for his signature.

Reports in recent weeks suggest an £80million valuation set by Villa.

However, the Villa Park faithful believe this is far from suitable, given the business of other clubs thus far.

As a result, supporters in the Midlands have set their own valuations for Rogers, with an exit potentially on the cards this summer.

Aston Villa fans spark Morgan Rogers conversation as club set unsuitable value

Currently away with England at the World Cup, it is unlikely that a deal will be done any time soon.

That being said, Rogers' future is still arguably the biggest talking point at Bodymoor Heath this summer, with interest from across Europe.

Taking to X, one supporter asked what level the fee should sit at, with multiple players across England recently linked with £100m-plus moves, including Elliot Anderson and Sandro Tonali.

In the replies, most people agreed with the post, suggesting that other transfers could be used as a yardstick.

In regards to a valuation, everyone involved in the conversation acknowledged that the £80m initially reported is far from enough, with lots looking at a sum of eight figures.

Throughout the 2025-26 season, Rogers proved talismanic, scoring huge goals for the Villans - particularly as they recovered from a poor start to the campaign to even find themselves among the title challengers at the turn of the year.

With 13 goals and 11 assists across the Premier League and Europa League, the Halesowen-born attacker had a huge impact that will be extremely difficult to replace.

However, despite this impact, one fan believes that a deal could be done at the commonly mentioned £120m mark.

Ahead of the coming term, Rogers' future is likely to remain a huge topic.

For Unai Emery and his side as they prepare for a Champions League return, it is something that they will want solved sooner rather than later.

Is a Morgan Rogers sale the best option for Aston Villa?

The dilemma surrounding Rogers is serious.

One one hand, it would be simply fantastic to see a local lad go on and become an icon at Villa Park, especially in an era where the club are looking to further progress and become one of the elite.

But, the financial benefits could be ever so crucial to a football club on the up.

A fee of around £100m is not something that the Villans would be likely to receive in one go, but it could bring about huge benefits as they work around the new Premier League and UEFA SCR rules, outlining a max 85 and 70 per cent spend in comparison to revenue.

Villa's most recent figure from a Champions League year sits at just under £400m.

A big sale would not only aid them in this regard, but also when it comes to potentially adding multiple players in one go - something Emery needs as he refreshes the squad.

Villa have a real conundrum on their hands this summer, but a solution will be required sooner rather than later.
