Arsenal are stepping up their move to sign the £100m star

They couldn’t repeat it, could they? Arsenal lifted the Premier League last month, ending a 22-year absence from the title, but Mikel Arteta is far from satisfied with his longing for trophies.

The Premier League champions suffered a crushing penalty shoot-out defeat against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final, but that should not detract from an incredible season.

Declan Rice stood and watched PSG lift the European Cup, his face turning into a rictus. You could say Rice knows Arsenal will come back. It’s not done yet.

It’s been an amazing year for the Gunners, but now, it’s time for Arsenal to consolidate their position at the top of the table by strengthening Arteta’s squad even more.

Arsenal are among the favorites for the Premier League star

Arsenal celebrated late into the night, but Arteta won’t want to forget that feeling anytime soon, and he will certainly want it. In order to stop the likes of Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United, players need to be signed.

The north Londoners have enjoyed a happy marriage with technical director Andrea Berta so far, but it has been uneventful, with the likes of Viktor Gyokeres and Noni Madueke leaving plenty to attack.

According to TEAMtalk, Arsenal could battle Chelsea and Manchester City to sign Morgan Rogers this summer, who is open to leaving Aston Villa this summer.

Although the player may be interested in moving to north London, his employers will play hardball, especially after winning silverware and securing a ticket to the Champions League. So Rogers has been bought for £100m.

Rogers, 23, is one of the best attacking midfielders in the Premier League, with a unique ability that would suit Arteta’s Arsenal system. He is expected to balance the offensive and defensive play off the ball, and in that, he may emerge as the new Aaron Ramsey.

Why Rogers could be Arsenal’s new Ramsey

A Welsh witch. Ramsey’s Arsenal career may have been marred by injury, but he made his mark during his 11-year career, scoring 64 goals and providing 60 assists in 369 games. Won three FA Cups in four years.

Ramsey, now 35 and retired, was a powerful and powerful midfielder in his day. Fight and focus on the ball by focusing on driving forward and making things happen in the final third.

Can Rogers pack the same punch at the Emirates? He is a flashy attacker, excellent at breaking up low blocks and pushing past opponents, into a dangerous position, but he is also a solid defender, coming in with tackles and blocks.

After helping Aston Villa to the Europa League title, Rogers has established himself as one of the most exciting midfielders on the market, someone Arsenal will benefit greatly from welcoming into their fold.

Hailed for his “world-class” quality in football by journalist Graeme Bailey, there is no doubt that Rogers is the real deal, someone who can provide Arsenal with a counter point, unlike the likes of Martin Odegaard and Eberechi Eze. In addition, he is skilled on the left side when needed.

Could this be the Ramsey-esque episode Arteta’s plan has been missing? Rogers would give Arsenal more space in front of goal, and he would move from box to box in a manner not unlike the Wales star in his prime.

Rogers may have established himself as “one of the best players in the Premier League”, according to pundit Jamie Carragher, but he still longs to play for the best, and at the Emirates, he will understand that goal.
