Chelsea defender Axel Disasi appears to be on the verge of departing the club during the January transfer window. Despite starting in the FA Cup win over Morecambe, Disasi’s lack of opportunities in his preferred center-back position has fueled speculation about his exit. Manager Enzo Maresca held a meeting with Disasi, reportedly deciding to leave him out of the squad for the Bournemouth match. Juventus has been linked with the player, but no formal offers have been made.
- Manager’s Decision: Maresca’s decision to exclude Disasi from the squad suggests the defender is surplus to requirements.
- Limited Role: Disasi has primarily played as a right-back rather than in his natural center-back role, contributing to his discontent.
- Replacement Options: Chelsea is eyeing Marc Guehi as a potential replacement and may recall Trevoh Chalobah from Crystal Palace.
- Youth Development: Josh Acheampong is emerging as a promising defensive option, likely starting alongside Levi Colwill against Bournemouth.
