Arsenal are reportedly preparing to make an approach to Aston Villa over the transfer of Morgan Rogers, in a move that could strengthen the Gunners' attack. The England international can play wide on the left or as a number ten, two positions that Mikel Arteta could do with strengthening.
Rogers finished the 2025/26 season with 14 goals and eight assists in all competitions, making him a highly sought-after target for Arsenal. His versatility and skillset would be a valuable addition to the team.
Arsenal are also closing in on a £10m deal for Leicester City wonderkid Jeremy Monga. The north London giants have also held talks over Lille midfield wonderkid Ayyoub Bouaddi. It seems likely that only Rogers and Bouaddi would go into the Arsenal starting line up straight away.
Rogers would likely replace Gabriel Martinelli or Leandro Trossard on the left, while Bouaddi could provide a good option to occasionally partner Declan Rice in midfield. Bouaddi has shown huge potential in recent times and could be a valuable asset to the team.
Arsenal fans will be excited to see increasing coverage on the club's pursuit of Rogers, who has the potential to be a game-changer for the team. The Gunners' summer transfer business is shaping up to be a busy one, with several high-profile targets being linked.
The team's current XI has been successful, but the addition of Rogers and other signings could potentially make it an even stronger unit. The question is, would it be a better Arsenal XI than the one that won them the league in 2025/26?
