Axel Disasi is expected to sign for West Ham today, joining from Chelsea on loan, and that means AC Milan will not land him.
According to Sky, Disasi will join West Ham on Deadline Day ‘despite interest from a number of other clubs, including AC Milan’. A medical is scheduled for this morning, with the centre-back preferring to stay in the Premier League and more specifically in London.
No Milan for Disasi
Milan were heavily linked with a swoop for Disasi as they look to bolster their defensive department before the window closes, but it seems that they have missed out on the Frenchman, or rather chose not to pursue him.
Journalist Carlo Pellegatti (via MilanNews) said the following on his Instagram: “As a question mark, understanding why Disasi fell through. Max Allegri likes him and liked him, despite rumours that I don’t think have been confirmed, and it’s unclear why this rumor arose that Allegri doesn’t like him.
“Why didn’t he arrive? A player on a free loan, for six months. Another question mark, perhaps we’ll understand. Today we’ll know more, but there are too many question marks in these two negotiations [the Mateta one also].”
To add further mystery, Nicolo Schira (via MilanMatters) report that CEO Giorgio Furlani had reached an agreement with Chelsea for Disasi but Allegri said no. He did not agree to this transfer because he wanted a defender with different characteristics, something Pellegatti refutes.
