TEAMtalk reported on July 22nd that Villa have enquired about the France centre-back as part of a wider look at Chelsea's out-of-favour defenders once the Alejandro Garnacho loan was sealed. Disasi, a £38m signing from Monaco in 2023, has been told he can leave and spent part of last season on loan at Villa Park before a spell at West Ham, so the profile and prior fit are known to Unai Emery. Chelsea have set an asking price of around £25m, with Roma and AC Milan also credited with interest. No formal Villa bid has been reported and the link is aggregator-tier for now, one of several defensive names Villa are said to be weighing rather than a leading pursuit.
