Following an injury to Andreas Christensen, FC Barcelona is considering options for the central defender position. The name of Chelsea's 27-year-old French international defender Axel Disasi is reportedly being considered by the club as one of the potential candidates. Disasi, who has 5 caps for France, joined Chelsea in August 2023 and has a contract that expires in June 2029. For the 2025/2026 season, he has made one appearance in Premier League 2. In addition to Barcelona's interest, several other clubs including Olympique Lyonnais, Milan, and West Ham United have also been linked with the player. Recent reports from December 2025 indicate Chelsea has set an asking price of €25 million for Disasi, who originally moved to the club from Monaco for a reported €45 million.
