"Inter Milan are reportedly interested in signing Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa and there's a belief they could get a deal done on the cheap. Konsa has been a key player for Villa in the last few years, and it's also seen him break into the England squad. It could now earn him a big move to an elite European side as Inter are said to be keen on the 28-year-old, who could be available for just 35m, according to L'Interista."
"Villa have endured frustration in the transfer market at times in recent times, having been under pressure to cash in on players to keep in line with the Premier League's PSR laws. This saw AVFC let Douglas Luiz go to Juventus last summer, while Jhon Duran then left for Al Nassr in January, followed by Jacob Ramsey being sold to Newcastle United this year."
"Konsa isn't getting any younger, so it might also make sense for Villa to cash in on him now, even if 35m isn't that much for someone who's been really important in Unai Emery's squad. Villa fans will no doubt hope they keep Konsa, but Inter's interest will surely be a concern, and it will be interesting to see how this saga develops in the weeks and months ahead."
Inter Milan show interest in Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa and could pursue a transfer valued around 35m. Konsa, 28, has been a key starter for Villa and has earned England caps. Aston Villa have faced pressure to sell players to meet Premier League PSR regulations, prompting recent sales including Douglas Luiz, Jhon Duran and Jacob Ramsey. Konsa's age and marketability make a sale plausible. Selling him for 35m could fund a defensive replacement, but replacing his specific contributions to Unai Emery's side would be difficult.
