Morgan Rogers has been excellent since his £117m Chelsea transfer

Since completing his high-profile £117 million switch from Aston Villa this summer, Rogers has immediately hit the ground running under Xabi Alonso.

The England international has seamlessly integrated into Chelsea’s dynamic attacking setup, quickly justifying his record price tag.

In his initial 2026/27 Premier League outings, Rogers has already racked up 2 goals and 1 assist in just 259 minutes of action.

Averaging a shot per game and maintaining an impressive match rating over 8.0 across his fixtures, his ability to carry the ball forward and create chances in the final third has added a ruthless edge to Chelsea’s frontline.

With 10 key passes and 2 big chances created already this campaign, Rogers is proving to be the focal catalyst in Alonso’s tactical setup.
