Reported Liverpool target Ezri Konsa has been enjoying a superb season for Aston Villa this term.

The 23-year-old joined Villa from Brentford in 2019 for a reported £12million and has made 52 competitive appearances in all competitions for Dean Smith’s side.

This season, Konsa has featured 20 times in the Premier League, helping the Villans enjoy a great campaign and remaining in the top half of the table.
