Rogers has played in Europe, logged double figures for goals and assists last term, and at just 22-years-old, is four years younger than Grealish was when he left Villa Park. The youngster is under contract until 2030, he is currently earning £75,000 per week.

Villa may still have to contend with the Premier League's spending rules. They are in a much stronger position than 12 months ago, when they were forced into selling Douglas Luiz to Juventus to avoid a 10-point deduction for a possible PSR breach. However, Champions League prize money and the £70m sale of Jhon Duran to Al-Nassr likely leaves them in a stronger position this time round.
