Biggest buy of the window: Chelsea close in on ABSURD fee deal 💰 Chelsea moved forward this Saturday (18) with the signing of attacking midfielder Morgan Rogers. The information was reported by journalist David Ornstein of The Athletic. According to him, the deal with Aston Villa involves a payment of £117 million. The 23-year-old player will sign a contract with Chelsea until 2032 and is expected to undergo medical tests on Monday (20).

In June, Manchester City agreed to sign midfielder Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest for £116 million. Rogers was signed by Aston Villa in February 2024 from Middlesbrough for £8 million. He stood out over the last two Premier League seasons and played in all six of England’s matches at the World Cup until the semifinal defeat to Argentina.
