Everton and Liverpool battle to sign quality centre-back

According to reports, Liverpool and Everton are interested in signing Charlton Athletic star Ezri Konsa.

Since breaking into the Charlton first team last season, Konsa has attracted plenty of interest and is viewed as a potential star of the future.

Despite being only 19 years of age, he has become a regular feature within the Charlton first team having played 48 appearances for the Addicks and was a member of the victorious England under-20 squad at the World Cup in South Korea during the summer.

Konsa is contracted with Charlton until 2020 and it is likely that he will find a new team in the near future with Charlton bracing themselves for offers in January.

Charlton have also done business with both interested clubs in the recent past. Joe Gomez joined the Reds in 2015 while Ademola Lookman joined Everton in January.

Given his talent, Konsa could prove to be a worthwhile investment for whichever club he joins.
