Aston Villa struck gold with £12 million ace, who is now valued the same as Grealish.

Aston Villa is now officially a Champions League club, an incredible achievement that would have seemed unimaginable this time last year.

The driving reason behind this success has undoubtedly been the superb recruitment, with a significant part of that being funded

by Villa star Jack  Grealish.The current Champions League winner left Villa Park in 2021 for the exorbitant £100 million

sum to join the dominant Manchester City .Grealish is currently worth far less than City paid for him, and he is regarded as one of Unai Emery’s most

dependable players.Villa paid for zri KonsaAfter regaining promotion to the Premier League in the 2018/19 season, Dean Smith had one

clear goal in the transfer window: to strengthen the defence.Matt Target, Tyrone Mings, and Kortney Hause joined the newly promoted side

that summer, as did Ezri Konsa, who was 21 years old.

Prior to his departure, the defender impressed at Brentford in his first season in the Championship, starting 42 games and maintaining 11 clean sheets.

The Bees defender cost Villa only £12 million at the time, and Smith branded him a “high potential defender,” who is now a

significant component to the side .Konsa’s market worth by 2024Konsa has been a consistent first-team player since joining the club,

making at least 24 starts per season since 2019,

and appearing in every game last season. However, the number four has improved dramatically under the Spanish coach,

to the point where he is now demonstrating his

abilities on a European arena and possibly for his country, England, this summer.

Regardless of whether he’s been deployed as a centre half or a right back, Konsa has shown to be a

“impressive” player, as Statman Dave has named him, in 34 league starts. The fact that he has demonstrated his adaptability

this season is one of the primary reasonswhy his value has surged in the last year,

to the point where he is now worth the same as Grealish. Konsa’s ability to be equally dominant on and off the ball distinguishes him

from many of his positional peers in England.

This season in the Premier League, the 26-year-old has an incredible 93% pass accuracy, 70.5 touches, and 0.1 dribbles per game.
