Crystal Palace have submitted a loan offer with an obligation to buy for Chelsea defender Axel Disasi, according to Fabrice Hawkins. Xabi Alonso and Pierre Sage are at Stamford Bridge and Selhurst Park with the Blues and the Eagles respectively.
The 28-year-old centre-back remains Palace’s top target to replace Maxence Lacroix as negotiations between the two London clubs continue.
With Lacroix recently completing his move to Stamford Bridge, Palace have earmarked Disasi as the ideal successor to maintain defensive stability at Selhurst Park.
The French ‘machine’ brings extensive experience across the Premier League, Ligue 1, and European competition, offering physical presence, aerial dominance, and composure on the ball to anchor Pierre Sage’s defensive unit.
While Chelsea initially preferred an immediate permanent transfer, Palace’s structured offer guarantees the Blues a permanent sale fee, providing a workable compromise that aligns with both clubs’ financial planning.
Negotiations between Crystal Palace and Chelsea are ongoing as both parties work towards finalising the conditional terms and valuation associated with the obligation clause. Crucially, progress is also being made on personal terms, with a key meeting already held between Palace officials and Disasi’s representatives.
For Disasi, a move across London offers a valuable career reset and the prospect of guaranteed regular minutes as a cornerstone in Palace’s backline.
As talks progress towards a decisive stage, Crystal Palace remain optimistic about concluding negotiations in the coming days. Should all terms receive final approval, Disasi’s arrival will be a key piece of business for Palace, securing a high-calibre defensive anchor ahead of next season.
