Aston Villa star Morgan Rogers has emerged as a summer transfer target for Arsenal.
According to The Times, the Gunners would have to offer a “significant fee” to prize Rogers away from Villa Park.
The playmaker only joined Villa in 2023 for £15million from Middlesbrough and extended his contract until 2030 last November.
But missing out on the Champions League could see players moved away this summer as the Villans are at serious risk from PSR rules, according to research undertaken by The Athletic.
The club have lost £206.2m in the past two seasons, the highest deficit in the Premier League in that time.
Research from the outlet suggests project Villa can only lose £15m in 2024-25 and remain in line with Prem rules.
As a result, they may be forced to listen to offers for a number of stars this summer.
Viktor Gyokeres boost
Manchester United are ready to win the race for Sporting Lisbon star Viktor Gyokeres.
United recently revealed total operating expenses have dropped by £41.6million to £162.1m in the latest quarterly club accounts after Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s brutal cost cutting.
That is despite the cash spent on the Glazers’ debt spiralling to a staggering £1.2billion.
Man Utd’s gradual U-turn in club finances means they are ready to pip Arsenal to land Gyokeres.
The striker has an £85m release clause but it is understood that the Portuguese giants would accept a fee closer to £60m this summer.
United boss Ruben Amorim is now ready to raid his former club after the boost in their accounts.
More Tottenham departures
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has lost his right-hand woman in executive director Donna Cullen, who has left after 20 years of service.
Elsewhere, Ryan Mason has also left the club to further his managerial career by taking up the vacant position at Championship side West Brom.
They are set to be the first two of many departures this summer after Ange Postecoglou’s dismissal as manager.
The shake-up also includes the appointment of Vinai Venkatesham as CEO, who previously served bitter rivals Arsenal in the same role.
Sources add these moves could be the prelude to majority owners Enic pumping fresh funds into the club.
