Aston Villa seeks £130m for Arsenal target Morgan Rogers

Aston Villa values Morgan Rogers at a British record £130 million as Arsenal shows interest in the player. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta aims to bring the 23-year-old forward from Villa to the Emirates Stadium this summer. However, Villa head coach Unai Emery is reportedly unwilling to part with Rogers, despite Arsenal facing competition from Chelsea. This valuation surpasses the current British transfer record set by Liverpool's purchase of Alexander Isak for £125 million last summer. Arsenal's potential pursuit of Rogers raises questions about their transfer strategy ahead of the new season.
