John Terry has described the transfer fee paid for Morgan Rogers as inflated. The former Chelsea captain shared his assessment of the deal during an appearance on the show Sports Uncensored.
Despite his concerns regarding the financial cost, Terry expressed excitement about the arrival of Rogers at Chelsea. He characterized the midfielder as a quality addition who is capable of improving the current squad.
Terry noted that Rogers opted to join Chelsea rather than the "red side of London" during the transfer process. According to Terry, the player’s decision was influenced by Chelsea’s history and the club's potential to win the Champions League.
These remarks were made on July 21, 2026, in response to a question posed by host Piers Morgan.
