Axel Disasi’s loan move to West Ham won’t be made permanent; enquiries made about Chelsea defender

Axel Disasi (28) has excelled on loan at West Ham United since joining back in January, however, it wasn’t enough to keep the club in the Premier League. As a result, he will return to Chelsea, although he isn’t expected to remain at Stamford Bridge for long, as per a report from Foot Mercato. 

In the proverbial “loft”, Disasi barely had a sniff at first-team action in the first half of last season. Chelsea had hoped that the Frenchman’s loan at Aston Villa would put him firmly in the shop window, but it did not, and he had to wait until January to make his exit.

The defender performed well in his 17 appearances for West Ham, and in the event of remaining in the Premier League, Nuno Espirito Santo made the signing of the centre-back a priority. But relegation to the EFL Championship was confirmed on Sunday, despite a win over Leeds United. 

As a result, WHU are not in a position to sign Disasi permanently. However, he is not expected to remain at Stamford Bridge either. Several clubs have already made enquiries about the defender, Foot Mercato understands.
