Rogers has zero interest in going to Chelsea.
He wants to compete for the PL and play UCL football. Chelsea have finished top 4 just once in 4 seasons (placing 6th, 10th and 12th the other 3 times) and haven’t competed for the title in 9 years.
Also, Chelsea can’t afford him.

Liverpool spent an initial £240 million in the summer to sign Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak
The result has been a combined nine goals and seven assists
The athletic does not think this is newsworthy
