If one thing is for sure, Chelsea are in for a busy final few days of the summer transfer window.
The Blues are still looking to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season, with today the day that it is expected Joao Felix becomes a Chelsea player again.
With the magnitude of additions they are making, it is clear that they have needed to sell plenty of first team talent as a result.
It has been claimed that a deal has been reached for Armando Broja to move on loan to Ipswich, with a big fee coming Chelsea’s way if they stay in the Premier League.
It seems as if near enough the entire first team squad would be made available if the deal was right for Chelsea, and this has meant the future is not safe for Axel Disasi.
Newcastle express interest in Chelsea’s Axel Disasi
The Frenchman was nowhere to be seen in the matchday squad for the season opener against Manchester City, and it looks as if top flight rivals Newcastle United have picked up on this fact.
According to The Athletic, the Magpies have registered an interest in bringing in Disasi to reinforce their backline.
Levi Colwill and Wesley Fofana Chelsea’s starting centre-backs
Based on the opening day of the season, it looks like Enzo Maresca’ starting centre-backs are going to be Levi Colwill and Wesley Fofana.
While the Frenchman impressed in his first game in over a year, it looks as if there are still some concerns over his fitness.
Fofana has not been named in the squad that are set to take on Servette tomorrow in the Conference League, although that list is only for the first leg of the qualifier.
There certainly still feels a chance for Disasi to break into the starting side for Chelsea this season, especially considering the club seem desperate to sell Trevoh Chalobah if any of their centre-backs.
It has to be remembered that Disasi has only been with the club for a single year following his £39m move last summer.
He will be competing with Tosin Adarabioyo though, who is pushing for his first competitive Chelsea appearance.
