Sun: Arsenal pays attention to Rogers after Havertz s injury, Villa will not sell without 80 million pounds

Hupu, August 20th, According to the reporter of the English media "Sun", Dan King, after the team's striker Havertz was injured and missed for a while, Arsenal's attention was set on Villa midfielder Morgan Rodgers.

The Sun said that Arsenal is weighing signing Aston Villa star Morgan Rodgers. It is reported that the Gunners are already paying close attention to Rodgers as they are looking for new frontcourt players to strengthen the club's offensive strength.

According to previous reports from multiple media outlets, after team striker Havertz will be absent for a period of time due to a knee injury, this increases the possibility of Arsenal returning to the market before the transfer window is closed this summer. Rodgers, 23, is competent for multiple positions in the frontcourt and has proved his strength in the Premier League. He is able to compete for most of the frontcourt positions in the formation of coach Arteta, which is why Arsenal keeps close attention to him

However, the Sun also said that Villa is determined to retain the England international. After they sold Ramsey to Newcastle for nearly £40m and loaned Jamaican winger Pele to Roma, there was no need to sell more players to meet the financial rules of the Premier League and UEFA.

They value Rogers at over £80 million and are unlikely to accept offers below that price.

When The Sun revealed earlier this summer that Rodgers was Chelsea's main target, there were rumors that Villa would offer him a lucrative new contract to evade interest from the Blues and other teams.

Whatever happens, Arsenal is now under pressure to sign another striker, although it has spent more than £200 million on new players this summer.
