One Chelsea star has been heavily linked with a move to Aston Villa this summer. But, the Villans are now said to be unwilling to sign him. This will force the Blues to find new club for the player.
The star in question here is Axel Disasi who is already away from Stamford Bridge on loan. He is at Aston Villa who paid £5 million as loan fee to keep him until the end of the season. But, they do not have an option to buy at the end of the season.
Chelsea are unwilling to let Disasi stay beyond this season. On the other hand, Villa are keen to sign some top defenders this summer. Hence, the Frenchman was heavily linked with a permanent move to the Birmingham club.
Aston Villa unwilling to sign Disasi on permanent basis
According to The Athletic, Villa held talks to discuss the future of Disasi. As per the reports, they have decided againts signing him on permanent basis. Hence, the French defender will be seen returning to West London at the end of the season.
Disasi has played 10 games for Villa so far. But, he has failed to impress Unai Emery who has opted to drop him from the starting lineup. Disasi has contract running until 2029 with Chelsea but he is unlikely to have future at West London too.
Chelsea have decided to rebuild their defensive unit this summer. They are likely to part ways with Disasi, Chalobah and Reato Veiga. In addition, they can also sell Badiashile for right offer. Lastly, they are worried about the injury issues of Fofana due to which they can opt to sell him or send him on loan.
As for the incomings, the Blues have Dean Huijsen and Marc Guehi as top targets. Guehi has already played at Stamford Bridge and the Blues can opt to make a move for him soon. On the other hand, Huijsen will cost £50 million and is wanted by multiple top clubs.
