Aston Villa Injury Concerns Mount Before Leeds United Clash: Cash, Konsa, Onana Doubts

Aston Villa’s trip to Elland Road this Sunday could prove trickier than initially thought. A growing injury list introduces some uncertainty into their lineup. Specifically, Matty Cash, Lamare Bogarde, Amadou Onana, and Ezri Konsa are all question marks for the Leeds United game.

The good news? All four players could still feature. Each faces a late fitness assessment to determine availability. It’s a nervous waiting game for Villa supporters.

Let’s dissect the situation.

Ezri Konsa seemingly has a tight calf. However, comments from England’s camp suggest it’s “nothing” serious, merely discomfort. A final check will confirm his readiness. Matty Cash also deals with a minor injury, preventing him from participating in Poland’s World Cup qualifier. That said, he was an unused substitute, implying it wasn’t debilitating. His involvement seems more promising than alarming. Bogarde and Onana are the real toss-ups, labeled as “50/50 propositions.” Their status remains the most unclear.

It’s worth remembering that Tyrone Mings and Andres Garcia remain sidelined.

This situation underscores a broader trend I’ve observed: the relentless Premier League schedule often pushes squads to their breaking point. Maintaining consistent performance becomes a real challenge when key players constantly battle niggles and knocks. Villa needs to tread carefully to avoid further setbacks in what has been a promising start to the season.
