Overview
- Axel Disasi’s February deadline-day switch from Chelsea on a reported €2m loan has made him a regular starter for West Ham, with seven appearances and five Premier League starts.
- He says his Chelsea exile in the ‘bomb squad’ was very tough but that he stayed professional and leaned on family support before seizing his chance in East London.
- West Ham have collected eight league points in his five starts, with the club level on points with 17th place, and his FA Cup display against Brentford featured 11 clearances and a perfect aerial-duel record, per FotMob.
- Supporters are urging a permanent deal, though reports indicate West Ham would seek a major discount from the £39m Chelsea paid in 2023 as rival interest is expected this summer.
- Disasi has expressed how much he is enjoying playing in his natural role under Nuno Espirito Santo, with any move likely to hinge on West Ham’s Premier League status.
