Ezri Konsa on Prince William's Royal Approval at Aston Villa

The Royal Endorsement

Ezri Konsa has spoken about the surreal experience of receiving support from Prince William, who referred to him as a 'Rolls-Royce' and has been showing 'unreal support' to Aston Villa.

Konsa's Encounter with Prince William

Konsa revealed that Prince William's praise is the greatest compliment of his career, saying: 'Definitely not ... he called me a Rolls-Royce once, so I’ll take that. That got stuck in my head. I’ll take that all day. It was really nice.'

The Impact of Royal Support

Konsa emphasized the significance of Prince William's support for Aston Villa, stating: 'It’s massive and to have his support is brilliant for the club and the players as well. Some of the players from different countries didn’t know who he was beforehand, so for them to learn about him and know who he is, is big.'

Prince William's Attendance at Villa Matches

Prince William was present in the Villa Park directors’ box for Villa’s 4-0 victory over Nottingham Forest, which secured their place in the Europa League final. He is also expected to attend the Europa League final against Freiburg in Istanbul.

The Future Outlook

As Aston Villa prepares for the Europa League final, Konsa expressed his hope that Prince William will continue to show his support, saying: 'Yeah, hopefully he will be there on Wednesday as well.'
