Axel Disasi: A Talented Young Defender
Axel Disasi is a talented young defender who has been impressing in the French football leagues. The 25-year-old has been a key player in the backline, since joining Monaco in August 2020.
His impressive performances have caught the eye of several European clubs, including Chelsea and Newcastle.
Addition to Chelsea's Defensive Line
The addition of Axel Disasi to Chelsea's defensive unit could improve the club's overall defensive strength.
Because of their defensive struggles last year, Chelsea would benefit from adding a player of Disasi's caliber to their roster.
The French center back's aerial ability, physicality, and poise on the ball make him a great fit for Mauricio Pochettino's system at Chelsea.
