Recent reports have stated that Chelsea could be about to loan one of their first team players to arch-rivals Tottenham.
It has been claimed that Spurs are looking to bring Axel Disasi as the January transfer window gets close to slamming shut.
Disasi has not yet agreed personal terms with Spurs, although Ange Postecoglu refused to rule out the addition in his post-match interview following their win yesterday.
The Frenchman has agreed to a move to Aston Villa, although Chelsea are far less keen on dealing with Unai Emery’s side due to them being direct competitors for a Champions League place for next season.
Chelsea fans amused at Axel Disasi links to Tottenham
Chelsea fans are not particularly bothered about keeping hold of Disasi, and normally selling to a London rival would be looked down on.
However, supporters have taken to social media to share that they would almost be excited to see how the defender would fare in Postecoglu’s style of defending high.
One user said: “I’m not being dramatic but Axel Disasi in Ange’s high line might be the funniest thing in the history of the sport.”
Another added: ”Disasi playing Ange ball would be the funniest thing ever. Please make it happen.”
A third stated: “Trust me, you wouldn’t want to see Disasi in an Ange system.”
Another used claimed: “Spurs recruitment is honestly mad. You’re gonna sign Disasi to play that Ange high line?”
Finally, one user said: “Disasi in Ange’s high line will be incredibly funny. The man moves at the speed of an aircraft carrier and you want him on the halfway line.”
Axel Disasi out of favour at Chelsea
Disasi has just six Premier League appearances to his name this season, with the majority of those actually coming at right-back.
It was claimed earlier this season that Disasi was last choice centre-back for Enzo Maresca, with him far preferring Levi Colwill, Wesley Fofana and Benoit Badiashile.
With Josh Acheampong coming through the academy to become a first team player and Trevoh Chalobah returning from his loan, there is less need for the former Monaco man to remain at Stamford Bridge.
