West Ham United pulled off a dramatic late move in the transfer market by securing the signing of Axel Disasi from Chelsea on a season-long loan, with all documents completed just in time before the deadline.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed the deal with his trademark “Here We Go,” revealing that the Hammers moved swiftly after AC Milan decided not to proceed with their pursuit of the French defender. With negotiations stalling in Italy, West Ham seized the opportunity and finalized the agreement in a race against the clock.
Disasi, 26, joins the London Stadium outfit in search of regular playing time after finding opportunities limited at Chelsea this season. The powerful centre-back brings Premier League experience, physical presence, and tactical versatility, having previously featured for Monaco before his move to Stamford Bridge.
West Ham manager Nuno Espirito Santo had been eager to reinforce his defensive options following a demanding run of fixtures and concerns over squad depth. The arrival of Disasi provides immediate cover and competition at the back, offering Moyes a reliable option for both domestic and European commitments.
