Arsenal agree £51m deal for Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa as Gunners bolster their defensive ranks

Arsenal have agreed a £51 million deal to sign Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa, bolstering their defensive options. The move comes as the Gunners face a defensive injury crisis, with William Saliba sidelined for months due to a back injury and Jurrien Timber also out long-term with a groin problem. Konsa's arrival is expected to provide much-needed cover at the back for Arsenal.
