  • Ezri Konsa: Stepping Up

    Ezri Konsa: Stepping Up
    Apr 1 2026
    In this episode of the Villa Podcast, Kate Tracey and Alan McInally sit down with Villa’s number four and vice-captain, Ezri Konsa, for an honest and reflective conversation about leadership, growth and staying grounded. Ezri looks back at growing up in Newham, a football-mad part of London, and his early days at the legendary Senrab F.C. He reflects on being scouted by Charlton Athletic, coming through alongside talents such as Joe Gomez and Ademola Lookman, and whether he ever imagined himself playing anywhere other than centre-back. Konsa also discusses the influence of Unai Emery on his development, not just tactically, but in terms of maturity and stepping up on the international stage with England. He shares memories of signing for Aston Villa, his dad proudly taking photos on the day he joined, and the togetherness that defined the promotion season. Now vice-captain, Ezri opens up about responsibility, setting standards, and the importance of a tight-knit dressing room.

    In this episode, Kate Tracey and Alan McInally sit down with Leon Bailey for a relaxed and revealing conversation about his journey, his roots, and what Villa means to him.

And despite becoming known for his explosive speed, Leon shares how he simply wasn’t the fastest by Jamaica’s famously high standards. He opens up about the influence of his adopted father, the mindset that shaped him from a young age, and why being an ambassador for Jamaica and giving back to the community remains so important. Leon also discusses his development at Bayer 04 Leverkusen, before reflecting on missing the Aston Villa dressing room and the genuine joy of being back among teammates and fans.
