Morgan Rogers

Morgan Rogers of Aston Villa was born in Halesowen, England on 26 July 2002 (age 23).

Morgan Rogers, born 26 July 2002 (age 23), is an English attacking midfielder whose senior career has taken its clearest shape at Aston Villa. Wearing squad number 27, he has become a regular part of their first-team picture rather than a prospect hovering at the edge of it.

Villa is where the substance of his career sits. Across three league seasons he has made 85 league appearances and scored 21 goals, with 2025-26 his most productive campaign so far: 10 league goals in 37 appearances. Across all competitions that season, he has made 55 appearances and scored 14 goals, including Europa League and domestic cup contributions.

His standing has grown with that workload. He has also represented England in the European World Cup qualifiers, making eight appearances, while his market value is around £34m according to Transfermarkt.

Rogers remains a current Aston Villa first-team presence, with his best football to date coming in the 2025-26 season. His career is still developing, but it is already far more than a promise on a team sheet.

Morgan Rogers was a major Aston Villa attacking presence in 2025-26, starting all 37 of his Premier League appearances and scoring 10 goals from central attacking midfield. The workload points to a first-choice role rather than rotation use, while three Europa League goals and one FA Cup goal gave him production beyond the league. Eight Premier League bookings added some disciplinary cost to an otherwise high-usage season.

Rogers's career trajectory has moved upward quickly. After leaving Manchester City's system through loans at Lincoln City, Bournemouth and Blackpool, he stepped into a permanent role at Middlesbrough before Aston Villa paid a much larger fee in 2024. His listed goal return has climbed from one in 2021-22 and 2022-23 to 10 in 2025-26, suggesting a player whose attacking output has developed with his rise in level.

The transfer record shows a clear progression rather than churn. Manchester City sent Rogers on three loans before selling him to Middlesbrough for a listed 1.5m fee, then Aston Villa moved for him seven months later at a listed 15m. That jump, followed by a €40.00m market value, reflects a player who moved from development minutes to Premier League importance.
