Chelsea Move for Maxence Lacroix After Agreeing £117m Morgan Rogers Deal

Chelsea Move for Maxence Lacroix After Agreeing £117m Morgan Rogers Deal — 1 of 3
1 / 3

Chelsea have wrapped up a record £117 million move for England midfielder Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa. The signing adds a creative spark to Xabi Alonso’s midfield ahead of next season. Now the Blues are lining up Crystal Palace centre-back Maxence Lacroix. Palace have reportedly raised their price to around €65–70 million, but Chelsea still lead the chase despite Arsenal’s interest. Alonso is also exploring offers for Tosin Adarabioyo and Trevoh Chalobah as he reshapes his defence for a Premier League title challenge.

Spending £117m on Rogers then targeting Lacroix shows how Chelsea are betting big rather than fixing deeper defensive issues.

Balancing big-money signings with homegrown prospects might help Chelsea maintain financial stability while improving squad depth over the long term.
