Aston Villa centre-back Ezri Konsa has opened up about what he called a surreal, lifelong dream fulfilled — representing England at the FIFA World Cup 2026.

Konsa played a meaningful role in England's memorable campaign, contributing a vital header in the Three Lions' dramatic 6-4 win over France — a result that secured England's best tournament finish in 60 years.

A moment he will never forget

Reflecting on the experience, Konsa expressed deep personal pride in speaking to the Aston Villa website.
