Tell me Mor
Aston Villa star Morgan Rogers has emerged as a summer transfer target for Arsenal.
According to The Times, the Gunners would have to offer a “significant fee” to prize Rogers away from Villa Park.
The playmaker only joined Villa in 2023 for £15million from Middlesbrough and extended his contract until 2030 last November.
But missing out on the Champions League could see players move away this summer as the Villans are at serious risk from PSR rules, according to research undertaken by The Athletic.
The club have lost £206.2m in the past two seasons, the highest deficit in the Premier League in that time.
Research from the outlet suggests project Villa can only lose £15m in 2024-25 and remain in line with Prem rules.
As a result, they may be forced to listen to offers for a number of stars this summer.

Saka a serious doubt
Arsenal star Bukayo Saka is struggling with an injury he picked up on the final day of the season.
Thus, Saka could miss the World Cup qualifier against Andorra as he has only trained the last two days.
Until that latest injury he was more or less always available, always playable every three days. He had this consistency in his game and in his body, which made him very unique.
He was decisive for England, he took responsibility, he bounced back after a decisive and dramatic penalty miss [Euro 2020 final].
It's nice to see that he's back because he wanted to be back, and you straight away see when he comes in, he is comfortable to be with the squad. He knows what it takes to be a national player.
He came into camp with a little bit of discomfort from the last match against Southampton, so we took care of him and treated him individually.
It was the first training session that he started and finished with the group today. Yesterday, he started with the group but did not finish with the group, so let's see.
I'm not sure if we take the risk for this game. The decision has not been taken, but he will be available for the Senegal match, and he plays a major role in our thoughts on how to build a competitive team.

Viktor Gyokeres blow
Manchester United are ready to win the race for Sporting Lisbon star Viktor Gyokeres.
United recently revealed total operating expenses have dropped by £41.6million to £162.1m in the latest quarterly club accounts after Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s brutal cost cutting.
That is despite the cash spent on the Glazers’ debt spiralling to a staggering £1.2billion.
Man Utd’s gradual U-turn in club finances means they are ready to pip Arsenal to land Gyokeres.
The striker has an £85m release clause but it is understood that the Portuguese giants would accept a fee closer to £60m this summer.
United boss Ruben Amorim is now ready to raid his former club after the boost in their accounts.

Isak tipped for Arsenal
Jamie O'Hara has claimed that Arsenal should sign Newcastle star Aleksander Isak over Viktor Gyokeres or Benjamin Sesko.
He told Grosvenor Sport: “The obvious position to strengthen for Arsenal is a striker – they need to get one in.
“They need someone big and strong who can get them 20 goals a season. For me, Kai Havertz just isn’t the man for the job.
“Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyokeres or Benjamin Sesko are the obvious choices in the striker department for them. However, the trouble with strikers who come over from other leagues is that they fail to hit the ground running – particularly players from the Bundesliga and Liga Portugal. There’s a massive difference between playing there and in the Premier League.
“I think clubs should be buying Premier League proven players who have been doing it week in, week out already. That’s why I think Manchester United have been quite clever by signing Bryan Mbuemo and Matheus Cunha – we all know they’re going to work for them.
“With that in mind, if I were Arsenal, I’d go and get Isak. I know it will be hard because Newcastle are in the Champions League, but Arsenal are a bigger club than Newcastle and could definitely tempt him.”
