Bayern Munich to Rival Arsenal and Man Utd for Morgan Rogers
Bayern Munich to Rival Arsenal and Man Utd for Morgan Rogers

Bayern Munich have entered the race to sign Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers, joining Premier League clubs Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United in pursuit of the 23-year-old attacking midfielder. The German champions are admirers of Rogers, who impressed in the Champions League for Villa last season, and could offer him a move abroad as part of Vincent Kompany's high-scoring side.

Rogers has been a revelation since joining Villa from Middlesbrough in February 2024, recording 24 goals and 23 assists since the start of last season. His form earned him a new contract in November and the 2024-25 PFA Young Player of the Season award, but interest from top clubs has persisted.

Arsenal and Manchester United are keen to add a left-sided forward, with Rogers comfortable in several attacking positions. Chelsea also retain strong interest after pursuing him last summer. However, Villa would demand a minimum of £80 million to part with the England star, whose value could rise further with a strong World Cup showing.

Villa would be reluctant to lose Rogers but selling him for a mammoth sum would help soothe financial concerns. Arsenal may need to sell either Leandro Trossard or Gabriel Martinelli to finance a move, while United are also targeting a left winger and midfield overhaul under a new permanent manager.
