Tottenham Hotspur have made an approach to sign Chelsea’s Axel Disasi (26), according to a report from Fabrizio Romano. Disasi has played a peripheral role at Chelsea since completing his move

Chelsea have been stalling over Axel Disasi’s agreed loan move to Aston Villa, and one of the reasons behind that may be that we’re waiting to see if other, perhaps better offers arrive in these final few days of the transfer window.

Aston Villa may need to make a quick change of plans before Deadline Day as a transfer described as a “priority” for manager Unai Emery has suddenly found itself in doubt.
