Chelsea have been linked with the Aston Villa midfielder Morgan Rogers in recent months.

According to a report from The Sun, Chelsea are keeping close tabs on his contract situation, and it remains to be seen whether they decide to make a move for him.

Aston Villa are hoping to tie him down to a new deal. He is one of their best players, and he was outstanding last season. The 23-year-old scored 14 goals and picked up 16 assists in all competitions. He is one of the best young players in the Premier League right now, and he could prove to be an excellent addition for Chelsea.

The Blues need more creativity and cutting-edge in the final third, and the England international would be a solid investment. Aston Villa do not want to lose a player like him, and they are hoping to tie him down to a new deal. It will be interesting to see if the midfielder is willing to commit his long-term future to the club.

He is valued in excess of £80 million, and Chelsea certainly have the financial muscle to pay up. It will be interesting to see if the player is willing to join a bigger club in the coming months. If he does not renew his contract with Aston Villa, it would serve as major encouragement for his suitors to come forward with offers for him.

Chelsea need someone like Morgan Rogers

Chelsea have been overly dependent on Cole Palmer for creativity and goals. They need more cutting-edge in the final third, and the Aston Villa star would be the ideal acquisition. He is a young player who will only improve with coaching and experience. He could develop into a world-class player for Chelsea.

Even if the Blues have to pay a premium for him right now, the deal could look like a bargain in the long term. Rogers is well settled in the Premier League, and he could make an instant impact at Chelsea. They will be hoping to win league titles and the Champions League. They need elite players at their disposal, and Rogers would be a sensational acquisition for them.
