AC Milan Targets Chelsea Defender Axel Disasi

Milan’s January Defensive Strategy

AC Milan is setting its sights on Chelsea’s defender Axel Disasi as they look to strengthen their backline in the upcoming January transfer window. The Rossoneri are actively searching for an experienced player to fortify their defense and have also been contemplating the return of veteran Thiago Silva from Fluminense.

Disasi on the Radar

Despite the interest in Silva, Disasi has emerged as a viable option, with Chelsea open to selling the French defender. After being sidelined during the preseason, Disasi has recently rejoined the first team and is participating in U21 matches to regain his match fitness ahead of the winter transfer period.

Reports from Il Corriere dello Sport indicate that Milan’s sporting director, Igli Tare, sees Disasi as an appealing and cost-effective solution to enhance their defensive lineup for the season’s second half.

Loan Negotiations Expected

Tare plans to explore a potential loan deal with Chelsea, and discussions are anticipated to be straightforward due to the amicable relationship between the two clubs.
