That’s according to Fabrizio Romano as he provides a major update on the saga in a post on his YouTube channel.
With Arsenal also closing in on Christos Tzolis, according to Romano in the video below, it seems they’re not done yet as they eye an ambitious move for Rogers.
Romano has made it clear that Rogers is Arsenal’s top target for that left winger role, despite the Premier League champions also being linked with Bradley Barcola.
It seems Barcola to Liverpool looks like a more likely outcome, according to Romano, who had some exciting details on Rogers’ future.

“There are no active talks for Bradley Barcola. And the player Arsenal want to add as a new winger is, from my information, still Morgan Rogers,” Romano said.
“Advanced conversations on player side, no issues on contract terms. The personal terms are almost agreed, just a few details to clarify. And Arsenal are ready to attack. Arsenal are ready to go and negotiate for their new winger, Morgan Rogers.
“So, club to club also expected to start soon after. So, this is Morgan Rogers, the player Arsenal want to add to their squad.”

Still, Rogers could cost as much as £130m, according to the Telegraph, so that’s potentially a major issue for Arsenal.
This would represent a club-record signing for the Gunners, eclipsing their previous most expensive purchase of Declan Rice, as reported by BBC Sport at the time.
