The1905.Club Summary

Chelsea defender Axel Disasi is nearing a move to Aston Villa after Fabrizio Romano revealed that the French centre-back has agreed personal terms with the Villains. Villa are keen to bolster their defensive options following injuries to Pau Torres and Tyrone Mings. Disasi, who has struggled for regular playing time under Enzo Maresca, could make the switch if Chelsea and Villa finalize the deal.

Key Points

  • Disasi’s Chelsea Struggles: The French defender, signed for £38.8m in 2023, has started just nine games this season across all competitions, prompting Chelsea to consider moving him on.
  • Villa’s Defensive Needs: Injuries to key defenders Pau Torres and Tyrone Mings have left Villa short at the back, making Disasi a prime target.
  • Agreement Reached: Fabrizio Romano reports that Disasi has agreed personal terms with Villa and is eager to join, following direct talks with Unai Emery.
  • Chelsea’s Perspective: Enzo Maresca reportedly feels that Disasi does not fit his system, clearing the path for his departure.
  • Final Hurdle: The deal now hinges on Chelsea and Villa reaching a club-to-club agreement, with Villa also exploring a potential move for Juan Foyth.
