Aston Villa are expected to hold contract talks with English international Ezri Konsa amid tentative interest from Arsenal, according to the Daily Mail. It is reported that Villa are preparing to open contract extension discussions with the centre-back to retain his services. The 28-year-old’s current deal at Villa is valid until 2028, and the club is keen to agree new terms with him once he returns from the World Cup. Konsa, who has 24 caps for England, joined Aston Villa in July 2019 and has a current market value of €40.00m, according to Transfermarkt. In July 2026, reports indicated Aston Villa's valuation for the player was approximately €70 million, while Arsenal was said to consider a fee of just over €40 million to be more realistic.
