Ezri Konsa, born on 23 October 1997 (age 28), is an England central defender whose senior career is now overwhelmingly tied to Aston Villa. Earlier stages have become background detail beside the length and scale of his Villa spell, which has carried him through eight seasons as a regular Premier League player.
Wearing squad number 4, Konsa has made 231 league appearances for Aston Villa, scoring eight league goals. His most productive league campaign came in 2020-21, when he scored twice in 36 appearances. His current market value is around ยฃ30m, according to Transfermarkt, which is about right for a defender who has become more fixture than novelty at that level.
He has remained firmly involved in 2025-26, making 34 league appearances without a league goal, along with one FA Cup appearance and 12 in the Europa League, where he has scored twice. Across all competitions for Villa this season, he has played 47 times and scored two goals. He has also stayed in the England picture, with one World Cup appearance and seven in European qualifying, including one goal.
Konsaโs career is not complicated to read: a centre-back established at Aston Villa, still active in the first team, and still relevant for England. The Villa years are the substance of it.
