Arsenal agree £50m-plus deal to sign Aston Villa’s Ezri Konsa
BBC Sport revealed last week that Arsenal had reopened talks with Villa over a deal for Konsa but still fell short of reaching an agreement.
Arsenal have agreed a deal worth more than £50m to sign Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa. The England international is set to have a medical before completing his move to Emirates Stadium.

"Usually, winning the Europa League and qualifying for the Champions League would leave a club in a position of strength. However, Villa have been picked apart this summer to become a victim of the system they have been vocal against."
In summary, while Aston Villa celebrated their Europa League win and secured Champions League football, they’ve faced significant squad departures due to financial rules and Uefa regulations.
