“Making a move” – Journalist shares update, long running Chelsea transfer saga could soon be over | OneFootball

Monaco are making a move for Axel Disasi and are in talks over a loan deal for the defender according to Santi Aouna.

Disasi is one of a number of players the Blues are looking to move on before the transfer window closes, but are yet to receive any offers for the Frenchman.

The 27-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan at Aston Villa, where he made ten appearances for Unai Emery’s men.

“Monaco, which prefers a loan, is in talks with Chelsea.

“The Blues would like a permanent transfer, Aston Villa and Bournemouth are still interested.”

Chelsea signed Disasi from Monaco in the summer of 2023 in a deal worth around £39m, and he’s made 61 appearances for the Blues scoring five goals.

Disasi isn’t the only player Chelsea are trying to move on before the end of the window, the Blues are also looking for solutions for Nicolas Jackson and Tyrique George as well as Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell.
