Chelsea have decided to exclude Axel Disasi from their Club World Cup squad, and the defender is expected to be made available for transfer this summer. The French centre-back, who plays as a defender, had been on loan at Aston Villa earlier this year. Disasi joined Aston Villa on a loan deal in February 2025, a move that was initially pursued by Tottenham as well. According to reports, Disasi reflected on the stressful nature of his transfer to Aston Villa. With his loan spell having ended, Chelsea are now open to selling the 25-year-old defender. Disasi’s style of play and position on the field have been associated with his time at Chelsea, prior to his loan at Aston Villa. The club had initially loaned him out to Aston Villa in February 2025, a deal that was first reported in January 2025.
