"Man City and Tottenham have competed closely on the pitch in recent seasons, and they are set to do so on the transfer front in 2026. Both clubs want to add defensive reinforcements to their squad, and they have set their sights on a particular target: Ezri Konsa. Konsa has been a very consistent performer for Aston Villa, and at 28, he is in the prime of his career."
"As per TBR Football, Graeme Bailey has confirmed that Man City and Tottenham want to sign Konsa, and although Aston Villa have no plans to sell, they have to consider a transfer if he does not sign a new contract before next summer. Ezri Konsa's name is coming up quite a lot when you talk to clubs about potential defensive options."
"Konsa is a nailed-on Premier League performer who is now showing it at international level. It is not a shock to me that some very big clubs are keeping an eye on him. Konsa was lined up by Liverpool during the summer, so it would be no surprise to see him move on in 2026 especially if he decides against penning a new deal at Aston Villa."
Manchester City and Tottenham have identified Ezri Konsa as a target to bolster their defences ahead of 2026. Konsa, 28, is a consistent Aston Villa centre-back who has broken into the England setup in recent years. Aston Villa currently have no plans to sell, but Konsa has just over two years remaining on his contract, which could force the club to consider a transfer if he does not sign a new deal before next summer. Konsa attracted interest from Liverpool during the summer and would represent a strong addition for top Premier League teams.
