Chelsea have lots of defensive optionsOne man set for contract terminationLinked with Serie A departureFollow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱WHAT HAPPENED?
TuttoJuve state that Juventus have enquired about Axel Disasi's situation at Chelsea following his loan stint at Aston Villa. They claim the 27-year-old's time at Stamford Bridge is about to end and the two parties will 'mutually terminate the player’s contract'.

Disasi signed for Chelsea from Monaco in 2023 for £38.5 million ($52m) but he has struggled to be a regular in the Blues' defence. While the west London team would most likely prefer to get a fee for him, a contract termination would make it easier for Juve to sign the versatile defender. And with Levi Colwill, Wesley Fofana, Trevoh Chalobah, and more, ahead of him in the pecking order, a Chelsea exit seems likely.
DID YOU KNOW?
Since signing for Chelsea nearly two years ago, Disasi has made 61 appearances for the club. After falling out of favour under head coach Enzo Maresca, the five-time France international joined Villa on loan in January, where he went on to make 10 appearances.

It remains to be seen if ex-Reims man Disasi, who still has four years left on his Stamford Bridge contract, has played his last game for Chelsea and if Juventus, or another side, will swoop for the 6ft 3in player.
