Morgan Rogers has put pen to paper on a new contract with Aston Villa until 2031.
The forward has been outstanding since his arrival at the club from Middlesbrough in 2024, establishing himself as a key player under Unai Emery while his performances have earned him a place in the England squad.

His new deal extends his previous one by 12 months.
“I’m so happy,” he told the club’s website.
“The faith from the people at the club is a really nice feeling, and I couldn’t wait to sign. I’m really happy.
“It’s home. Being from the area makes it that bit sweeter, but the manager, the players, the staff, everyone here is so warm and welcoming every day.
“I’m excited to come in and train, work hard and give my all every day. I really enjoy it.
“The most important thing for me is enjoying my football and being able to express myself. There’s no reason why I wouldn’t want to stay here.”
Rogers was also named the PFA Young Player of the Year last season and hailed the influence of Villa boss Unai Emery in helping him to improve.

“It’s everything,” Rogers said of Emery’s influence.
“Especially with the things I’ve been through in the past with different teams, when you get a manager who’s so on your side and who wants to help and improve you, that really good relationship is very nice.
“For it to be a manager who’s so highly thought of in the game is really nice. I have a really good relationship with him and I can’t wait to keep working with him and keep progressing together.”
