The French defender Axel Disasi is nearing a move to West Ham United on loan from Chelsea, as negotiations between the parties have entered their final stages in recent hours.

According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the talks between the two clubs have seen significant progress, with the pace of the agreement accelerating in preparation for finalizing the deal officially before the transfer window closes.

Romano pointed out that Disasi was not close to moving to any Italian club despite numerous reports suggesting otherwise, confirming that the player's most likely destination at the moment is West Ham.

The deal is expected to be a significant defensive addition for West Ham, as the team seeks to strengthen its backline with a player who has experience in the Premier League and European competitions, if the official announcement is made in the coming days.
