Axel Disasi, French defender of Chelsea, could leave the club this winter. The reasons and the interested clubs.
The French defender Axel Disasiaged 26, could leave Chelsea from the next winter transfer window. According to Reliefthe London club wishes to part ways with the player. The aim is to recover part of the 45 million euros invested during his transfer from Monaco in the summer of 2023.
After a promising first season under the direction of Mauricio Pochettino, Disasi faces more difficulties this year under the orders of Enzo Maresca. His limited playing time and the change in defensive hierarchy fueled transfer rumors.
A promising start, but obstacles in the second season
Axel Disasi was a regular starter during his first season at Stamford Bridge. His integration seemed successful, and he met expectations on the ground. However, the arrival of Enzo Maresca reshuffled the cards. With only 3 appearances in the Premier League this season, the defender is struggling to find a place in the starting lineup.
Increased competition in central defense and a less favorable tactical system contributed to his downgrade in the team. This situation weighs on his progress and could accelerate his departure.
Chelsea: A resale strategy
Chelsea, known for their massive investments in the transfer market, are now looking to optimize their assets. The sale of Axel Disasi would represent an opportunity for the club to free up payroll and recover funds.
This choice is part of a broader logic of rationalization, with several players likely to be placed on the market. Chelsea hopes to attract satisfactory offers, particularly from English clubs, where transfer prices remain high.
Among the clubs potentially interested in Disasi, Newcastle United figure in good position. The Magpies had already tracked the player in the past and could consider strengthening their defense with an experienced and versatile profile.
