“Happening now” – Fabrizio Romano confirms late transfer drama at Chelsea
Today marks the start of the last two days of the transfer window, and Chelsea are still hoping to finalize a few last-minute deals.
A large number of people were unaware that this transfer window lasts until February 3rd, which falls on a Monday. Some people just assumed again that the January transfer window closes in January! It would be understandable if you thought that.
However, lucky for Chelsea and other clubs trying to get some late transfer deals done, they still do have a couple of days left. Chelsea play tomorrow night though, so it is far from ideal for them having a game on transfer deadline day because that could easily effect the build up to the game.
The Blues are still trying to do some late deals, and one of the longest sagas of the window is coming to a close finally with Cesare Casadei completing his medical to join Torino this weekend.
Meanwhile, it’s been reported that one Chelsea player is expected to go on loan to Everton this weekend too due to the situation of Armando Broja.
But what of Axel Disasi? He clearly wants to go, but will he get his move away?
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano is reporting that Aston Villa are insisting again for Axel Disasi, and negotiations continue between clubs as the player said yes days ago.
Romano also confirms that Tottenham have made contact for Disasi yesterday and could also be an option for the want-away defender who has become surplus to requirements at Chelsea.
So this situation is certainly a pretty much one to watch for the final moments of this transfer window today and tomorrow.
