Premier League champions, Arsenal have completed the 55m deal to sign defender Ezri Konsa from Aston Villa. The 28-year-old England defender joins the Premier League champions from Aston Villa on a four-year contract, with the option to extend for a further year.After weeks of negotiation, the clubs reached an agreement on Wednesday, which could earn Villa up to an additional 4m in add-ons. Its a privilege to be here and I cant wait to get started, said Konsa, who clinched the Europa League with Villa last season. I want to keep winning, Im hungry to win and thats what Im here for. Ill do everything in my power to continue bringing success to this club. Its a proud moment for me and my family to play for one of the best teams in the world. A lot of emotions have gone through my head, but I think it will really kick in on the first matchday. Konsa signed for Villa in 2019, and played nearly 300 times, winning the Europa League last season and helping the club finish in the Premier League top four twice in the last three seasons. He arrives at Arsenal set for the prime years of his career. The post Arsenal complete 55m signing of England defender Ezri Konsa appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
