Zapping Onze Mondial EXCLUDED: Randal Kolo Muani’s “Little Brother” interview!

Having passed through Reims and Monaco before flying to England, Axel Disasi had a full season with Chelsea and quickly established himself as a strong man in the Blues’ defense. His pair with Thiago Silva pleases their coach, Mauricio Pochettino, who brings them back together on numerous occasions. It’s a great performance by Disasi, who is discovering a foreign championship for the first time in his career and who is playing in a squad where there is no shortage of central defenders. The French international has played forty-three matches in all competitions this year and has a bright future at Chelsea.

Pochettino had spotted him for several years

The management of the Blues spent forty-five million euros to afford Axel Disasi this summer, at the request of the Argentine coach. “The first time we were able to talk together, he told me about the match I had at the Parc des Princes during Covid, when I played right back. I really appreciated this anecdote because it showed that he knew me well and that I already interested him before“, he explained for Téléfoot.
