Exclusive: Arsenal Make Fresh Offer to Sign Ezri Konsa
Arsenal have made a fresh offer to sign Ezri Konsa from Aston Villa, with a packaged fee of £50m (~£45m + £5m in add-ons) formally offered by the Gunners. The 28-year-old's personal terms have been agreed in principle, but Villa are holding out.
As of 13 August 2026, Arsenal are 7 points clear at the top of the Premier League, with a league standing of 1st in the final 2025 table, 85 points, 26 wins, 7 draws, and 5 losses from 38 games, with a recent form of WWWWW. The team has scored 71 goals and conceded 27, with a +44 goal difference.
The Gunners' recent form has been impressive, with 5 wins and 0 losses in their last 5 games, including a 2-1 win over Crystal Palace on 24 May 2026. Their next fixture is against Coventry at home on 21 August 2026.
Arsenal's optimism of agreement with Konsa is a significant development, but Villa's reluctance to sell may yet scupper the deal.
