TEAMtalk named the 25-year-old France centre-back alongside Axel Disasi on July 22nd as a Chelsea defender Villa have enquired about after agreeing the Alejandro Garnacho loan. Badiashile, a £35m arrival from Monaco in 2023, has been transfer-listed by Chelsea and is available as they trim their squad. Villa's interest is framed as exploratory cover for a back line that could yet lose Ezri Konsa, with no formal approach reported. The reporting is hit-and-miss tier and carries no tier-one corroboration.
