I\u2019ve been told by people who know the Villa situation that even if there was a fire sale tomorrow, the last player out the door at Villa would be Morgan Rogers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s not going anywhere this month. Villa do know of interest from elsewhere, but my understanding is that if and when Rogers does leave Villa, the chances are very high it\u2019s going to be Chelsea.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know about the Joel Shields relationship, etc. I\u2019d be very surprised if his next club wasn\u2019t Chelsea purely because of that relationship, and we know they like him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cArsenal always had an interest in him, but it was never that strong. And obviously, in terms of a fee, if you\u2019re going to get Morgan Rogers, I think you\u2019re looking at Florian Wirtz territory-type money.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How much will Rogers cost this summer?<\/p>\n<p>Despite Bailey\u2019s and Romaono\u2019s assertion, it turns out that the North London club believe that a deal for the Villa star may not be out of reach.<\/p>\n<p>According to a recent update by The Independent, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/spurs-news\/how-much-tottenham-would-have-to-pay-to-sign-morgan-rogers-in-shock-late-deal\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Tottenham believe Villa will sell Rogers for the right fee<\/a>, given their PSR issues.<\/p>\n<p>However, the outlet claimed that it would take a fee in excess of \u00a380m to prise the attacking midfielder away to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/club-info\/stadium\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tottenham Hotspur Stadium<\/a> this summer.<\/p>\n<p>       Have something to tell us about this article?
