Aston Villa reject transfer interest in Morgan Rogers amid Manchester United pursuit
Summary

Aston Villa has dismissed transfer bids for Morgan Rogers as interest from Manchester United and others grows. The 23-year-old midfielder, currently in the U.S. with the England squad for the 2026 World Cup, joined Villa from Middlesbrough for £8 million in 2024 and signed a six-year contract in November. Villa reportedly seeks £80 million to £100 million for Rogers but has made it clear they do not intend to sell. United's interest is heightened due to Rogers' previous connection with Michael Carrick from their time together at Middlesbrough.
