Arsenal have made Morgan Rogers their top transfer priority and are expected to table a bid for the Aston Villa midfielder soon, according to the Standard. The 23-year-old England international, described as a versatile attacker, is one of the most wanted players this summer, but Aston Villa are unwilling to sell, the Sun reports.
As the Gunners push for Rogers, Manchester United are exploring a move for Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn, 30, after he was released by Nottingham Forest, the Sun says. United captain Bruno Fernandes, meanwhile, is set to stay at Old Trafford after letting teammates know he has no intention of leaving following interest from Saudi Arabia last summer, according to Talksport.
