Villarreal will reportedly make offer for Chelsea defender today

Chelsea are actively offloading players not in Enzo Maresca's plans this summer, with several departures already occurring, including Noni Madueke and Djordje Petrovic, and more expected before the transfer window closes.

The centre-back position is a particular area targeted for a revamp, with Chelsea linked to players like Marc Guehi, Jorrel Hato, and Jarrad Branthwaite. Conversely, Axel Disasi, signed for around €45 million from AS Monaco, is among those potentially leaving. Disasi was a consistent player under Mauricio Pochettino but saw limited action under Maresca and was loaned out last season, raising questions about another temporary exit.

French publication L'Equipe reports that Villarreal is expected to make a loan offer for Disasi this Tuesday to begin negotiations with Chelsea, who would prefer a permanent transfer. It remains uncertain if Chelsea will sanction another loan; this might only happen later in the window if no satisfactory permanent offer materializes. Disasi's future at Chelsea is currently unclear, pending developments on potential offers and Chelsea's decision.
