Fabrizio Romano says Tottenham have made their move for Axel Disasi

Romano, taking to X, says Tottenham have approached Chelsea defender Axel Disasi over a potential move to N17.

Alꦬthough Disasi has already agreed personal terms with Aston Villa, Romano suggested that the Blues man is indeed c🐼onsidering the Spurs lead.

“He’s now expected to make a decision soon… up to the player,” the transfer insider wrote onꦺ the social ℱmedia platform.

Disasi’s current situation at Chelsea

Disasi, who joined Chelsea in a £38.5m move from Monaco back in August 2023, has🌳 struggled under Enzo Maresca so far this season.

Since the turn o📖f the year, Disasi has picked up j🏅ust 13 minutes of Premier League football, coming off the bench against Wolves.

However, the France international did play the f𝓡ull 90 minutes in th🉐e FA Cup win over Morecambe back in January.

Trevoh Chalobah’s re🌊call from his loan spell at Crystal Palace is likely t𓆏o push Disasi further d🐼own the pecking order at Chelsea.

TBR Football sources have confirmed that Chelsea are currently stal꧃ling in talks wit🌃h Villa over Disasi, which in turn has left the player unhappy.

Disasi could do with a change of scenery and T🏅ottenham wouldn’t be a bad place for him to try and﷽ kickstart his career once again.

Should Spurs land Disasi, t꧂hey’d be getting a player who Football Talent Scout’s Jacek Kulig has described as a “complete and dominant” defender.

His stre♑ngths include pace, tackling, heading, athleticism, tenacity aಞnd timing, according to the scouting expert.

Disasi has also been likened to Liverpo꧃ol and Netherlands star Virgil van Dijk, one of the best defenders in world football.
