Chelsea offered £117m for Rogers in an owner-to-owner deal.
Two days later, Aston Villa signed Garnacho from Chelsea on a four-year deal, with an obligation to buy set at £42.67m.
Villa added Nico Jackson today for £47.5m plus £17.5m in add-ons (£65m total).
That puts Villa's net take-home on Morgan Rogers at £9.33m, and that's before factoring in Boro's 20% sell-on clause. Off a £117m fee, that's £23.4m.
All that 'new market rate' nonsense we had to listen to. It's a mates' rate market in 2026; don't believe anything until you see the full shape of the transfer window.
