Morgan Rogers has expressed doubts about his £130 million valuation set by Aston Villa as Arsenal reportedly reduces its interest in the player. With Villa using Elliot Anderson's £116 million transfer as a benchmark, the high asking price complicates Arsenal's pursuit. Rogers, who scored 14 goals and provided 12 assists last season, remains under contract until 2031 after a renewal in 2025. While Villa aims to retain him, the steep valuation has prompted discussions around whether it reflects his worth. Rogers stated, 'I’m not sure I’m worth all of that!' before England's World Cup match against Mexico.
