Morgan Rogers

Morgan Rogers of Chelsea was born in Halesowen, England on 26 July 2002 (age 24).

Morgan Rogers (born 26 July 2002, age 24) is an English attacking midfielder now with Chelsea, where he wears number 17. His current market value is around £34m, according to Transfermarkt.

The main weight of his career so far sits with Aston Villa. Across three league seasons there, Rogers made 85 league appearances and scored 21 goals, with his best return coming in 2025-26, when he scored 10 times in 37 league matches. That was the spell that moved him from promise into something more substantial.

His move to Chelsea has not left him on the margins. In 2026-27 he has made nine appearances in all competitions and scored four goals, including three in five Premier League outings. He has also appeared in the FA Cup and League Cup, which points to a player still being used regularly rather than merely kept around the squad.

Rogers has also been involved with England this season, appearing in World Cup matches, European World Cup qualifiers and the Nations League, scoring once in the latter competition.

At this stage, his career is still shaped most clearly by the Aston Villa years, but his Chelsea spell has already given him a visible first-team role. He remains an established young English midfielder with a decent scoring edge from attacking areas.

In the 2026–27 season Rogers has made five Premier League appearances – all starts – and scored three goals while collecting one yellow card; that goal rate from central attacking midfield points to a direct attacking role and significant offensive impact early in the campaign. He has also contributed across cups with two FA Cup appearances and one FA Cup goal plus two League Cup appearances, indicating rotation between league and cup duties but consistent involvement in multiple competitions.
