Ezri Konsa, a 28-year-old defender, is set to undergo medical exams before the transfer is finalised. The English club has been evaluating Konsa as an option to strengthen their defence.
Konsa has been playing for Aston Villa since 2019 and can operate as a centre-back or right-back. He also represents the English national team. It is worth noting that Globo Esporte Futebol reports Konsa's participation in the 2026 World Cup, but this claim is currently unverified.
The transfer still depends on the conclusion of medical exams and the formalisation of the deal.
