Ezri Konsa, born 23 October 1997 (age 28), is an England central defender now with Arsenal, where he wears No 15. His market value is around £30m, according to Transfermarkt.
His career is shaped mainly by Aston Villa. Across seven seasons there, he made 231 league appearances and scored eight league goals, becoming a regular presence in a side that came to rely on his steadiness rather than any great fuss around him.
His most productive league season at Villa came in 2020-21, when he scored twice in 36 appearances. That was typical enough of his profile: a defender first, useful in both boxes when the chance came, but valued above all for repeatable work over a long spell.
At Arsenal in 2026-27, Konsa has made three appearances across the Premier League and FA Cup. He has also been involved with England, with eight World Cup appearances and one goal, as well as seven European World Cup qualifying appearances and one goal.
Konsa’s career to date is that of an established Premier League centre-back, with Aston Villa providing the long, defining stretch before his move into the Arsenal squad.
