Manager Fabrizio Romano revealed earlier this week that Arsenal had held talks with the player&#8217;s camp.<\/p>\n<p>    Negotiations between the clubs have yet to begin, but it is widely believed he could cost more than \u00a380m to sign from Villa Park this summer.<\/p>\n<p>What will Rodgers bring? Well, the key Premier League know-how ticks a lot of boxes for Arteta&#8217;s team, and so does his availability.<\/p>\n<p>The 23-year-old has missed just two league games since the start of the 2024\/25 season, one of which was due to suspension for accumulating too many yellow cards.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-container\">\n<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"\" align=\"\" summary=\"\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"3\" scope=\"col\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Rogers &#8211; Career by season<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>season<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>the goal<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>assist<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>2022\/23<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>1<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>1<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>2023\/24<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>10<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>9<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>2024\/25<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>14<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>16<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>2025\/26<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>14<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>12<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p>But the important thing is that he is a very good young player. Whether playing on the left-wing or breaking through the middle as a number 10, Rodgers is exceptional.<\/p>\n<p>He has scored 14 goals in back-to-back seasons with the Villains and has assisted the Villains as well. He provided 16 assists in 2024\/25 and a further 12 in 2025\/26.<\/p>\n<p>A skilled operator who is incredibly direct and aggressive in the final third, this would be a fantastic signing for the Gunners.<\/p>\n<p>But what if Arsenal had already signed their own version?<\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-vignette\">\n<div class=\"qz\">\n<div class=\"qz-content\">\n<div id=\"qend\">\n<p>you scored<\/p>\n<p>out of 20<\/p>\n<p>      <button class=\"e-replay\" onclick=\"startQuiz()\">\u21a9 Play again<\/button>\n    <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"arsenal-are-already-signing-their-own-morgan-rogers\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Arsenal_have_already_signed_Morgan_Rodgers\"><\/span>\n                        <strong>Arsenal have already signed Morgan Rodgers<\/strong><br \/>\n               <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Much of the chatter in recent days has revolved around Leicester City&#8217;s Jeremy Monga.<\/p>\n<p>The Gunners are reportedly close to signing the 27-year-old. Arsenal&#8217;s young signings continue to be strong and they have done an incredible job of bringing in some of the best talent in the world.<\/p>\n<p>    Alongside Monga, they have already signed another teenage duo, including Andrea Berta. They go by the names Edwin Quintero and Holger Quintero.<\/p>\n<p>Both are just 16 years old and currently play for Independiente del Valle in Ecuador, with both players agreeing to join Arsenal in the second half of 2025 before signing.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not familiar with the notoriety behind this great South American club, the first thing you should know is that their youth system is one of the best on the planet.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a production line that has already produced PSG&#8217;s William Pacho, Chelsea&#8217;s Moises Caicedo and Kendry Paes, and Arsenal&#8217;s Piero Hincapie.<\/p>\n<p>    They also have several other players heading to Europe, with central defender Dainar Ordonez already agreeing a move to Chelsea. Arsenal could also raid them and poach two of the best young players in the world in the form of the Quintero twins.<\/p>\n<p>Edwin is probably the most exciting. Scout Jacek Kulig named him one of the best teenagers on the planet in early 2025. That list also included Max Dauman. That&#8217;s how special he is.<\/p>\n<p>His older brother, a right winger by trade, is more of an attacking midfielder, much like Rodgers.<\/p>\n<p>    Like Rodgers, Holger Quintero is described as a technically gifted right-footed attacking midfielder who boasts a very impressive set of attributes.<\/p>\n<p>Como scout Ben Mattinson outlined how he is a &#8220;definitive creator with a killer final ball&#8221;, while the aforementioned Kulig hailed him as &#8220;a great technical prospect with great close control and flair&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>What also sets Holger apart from other players is his incredible level of agility, making him extremely difficult to stop in one-on-one situations.<\/p>\n<p>Clips of the player online show how great he is at moving forward with the ball in central areas. Coincidentally, that is one of Rodgers&#8217; best traits and a big reason why Arsenal want to sign him. He will bring an immense threat to the center in a direct and attacking way that Martin Odegaard does not have.<\/p>\n<p>Rodgers may be fully committed to the very present, but with Holger Quintero, they may have already established their version. His potential is huge and as this is a pre-agreed contract, it has not gone unnoticed among supporters.<\/p>\n<p>However, we will have to wait to see what he does. The twins have visited Emirates&#8217; training base in London Colney, but cannot officially join the club until they are 18. As a result, he will become an Arsenal player in the summer of 2027.<\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                              \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"arsenal-on-the-verge-of-signing-their-own-olise-jeremie-monga\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<p>                        <\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\"><label>related<\/label><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Arsenal_close_to_signing_Olise_after_verbal_agreement\"><\/span>\n<p>\t\t\tArsenal close to signing Olise after verbal agreement<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Arsenal have almost agreed their first deal of the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal enter this transfer window with high expectations.
