Arsenal Close In on Ezri Konsa Deal
Arsenal are closing in on a deal to sign Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa, according to reliable journalist David Ornstein.
The Premier League champions have long viewed the 28-year-old England international as a priority target this summer, and talks between the two clubs have gathered significant momentum in recent hours.
Arsenal’s hierarchy have been working closely with their Aston Villa counterparts to get an agreement over the line, with discussions at ownership level having helped bridge the gap between Villa’s valuation and the fee Arsenal are prepared to pay.
The Gunners are hopeful of wrapping up the deal in the coming days, adding Konsa to their defensive ranks just in time for the new season. He has been one of the club’s standout targets throughout the window, and Arsenal remain determined to get the deal done.
