Aston Villa could make a “huge” profit if they were to sell Morgan Rogers following interest from Tottenham.
Football Insider revealed on 3 August Villa are doing everything they can to keep Rogers after he’s been linked with an exit this summer.
Villa are set to offer Rogers a new contract despite his current deal running until 2030, having only put pen to paper over a new deal last November.
