Deal done! Benfica target set for loan to Crystal Palace | OneFootball

Benfica see another option slip away that had at one point been mentioned as a reinforcement for the centre of defence. The market continues to move, and one of the players who had been on the Eagles’ radar already has virtually everything lined up to continue his career in the Premier League.

Axel Disasi is set to be loaned by Chelsea to Crystal Palace, according to Fabrizio Romano. The two English clubs have reached an agreement for the loan of the French centre-back, with the “blues” receiving a loan fee. The player’s salary will also be covered by the London club during the season.

The move is now entering its final stage, as Disasi is undergoing the necessary medical examinations this Friday to complete the transfer. If everything goes as expected, the French international will go on to represent Crystal Palace on loan, leaving behind the possibility of staying at Chelsea.

The 28-year-old defender had been linked with Benfica during this transfer window as one of the options to strengthen the heart of the defence. His versatility was also one of the traits that could have sparked interest at Luz, since the 28-year-old can play not only as a centre-back, but also as a right-back.

. In the service of the Hammers, he made 17 appearances for the first team. Now, everything points to a new adventure in London, this time in the Crystal Palace shirt.
