According to The Athletic’s David Ornstein, Aston Villa centre-back Ezri Konsa is one of the options Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are studying as they seek to bolster their defences in the summer transfer window.
Spurs had the 23-year-old on their radar when Toby Alderweireld’s £25 million release clause became active in the summer of 2019, but no concrete move was made as the Belgian remained at the club and has since signed an extension.

Given their struggles at the back this term, head coach Jose Mourinho will be keen to bring in a quality centre-back ahead of next season, and Konsa could be his man.
