Liverpool may have been handed a significant boost in their reported pursuit of Aston Villa star Morgan Rogers.

Links with the 22-year-old first emerged last week, when journalist Fabrizio Romano told GiveMeSport that several Premier League clubs, including the Reds, are interested in Rogers.

The article added that Liverpool have sent scouts to watch the attacker on multiple occasions and view him as an ideal long-term prospect, thanks to his versatility across numerous positions.

However, interest in Rogers is widespread, and the report concluded that Aston Villa have little desire to part ways with the player.

Given how crucial he has become to Unai Emery’s side, any deal would be far from straightforward - which is why the latest information from the Daily Mail could represent a boost for potential suitors.

The article reveals that Villa must make at least one significant sale before June 30 to remain compliant with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR).

Rogers is under contract at Villa Park until 2030, and the latest rumours suggest he could command a fee in the region of £100 million - which would represent a substantial return on the initial £15 million Villa paid Middlesbrough in February last year.

Who Villa will consider selling this summer remains to be seen.

The Daily Mail notes uncertainty around the future of Emi Martinez, while Ollie Watkins has also been tipped for a possible move.

That said, Rogers would undoubtedly command the highest fee of any player in Emery’s squad, given his age and growing influence.

However, they currently sit seventh in the Premier League, with only the top five earning a place in next year’s edition.
