Central defender Axel Disasi may move from Chelsea to Newcastle. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
An internal source, journalist Sebastian Vidal, provided this information. It was previously reported that Atalanta refused to sell Giorgio Scalvini, who was Newcastle's main target.
According to the source, Newcastle is considering Disasi to fill Scalvini's position. Chelsea has valued him at 30 million euros.
Disasi played on loan at Aston Villa in the second half of last season. He appeared ten times for the team but did not record any goals or assists.
The 27-year-old French player's current contract with Chelsea is set to last until 2029. Disasi is known as an experienced defender in his position and is expected to be beneficial to the team.
His transfer to Newcastle may be carried out to strengthen the team's defensive line.
