The 26-year-old centre-back join Chelsea from Monaco for around £38.5m in 2023, but e never really cement him place for Stamford Bridge. Instead of becoming one solid rock wey the Blues fit rely on, Disasi don struggle to adapt to Premier League pace.
Last season, Chelsea even send am go Aston Villa on loan for second half of the campaign. For there, he play 10 competitive matches under Unai Emery, but him form no still reach the level wey fans expect.
