The rich leave nothing to chance. As soon as the giant from Stamford Bridge realized that Wesley Fofana will not be available to coach Mauricio Pochettino for months due to a knee ligament injury, they took action and promoted Axel Disasi as a new player today. Chelsea paid Monaco around 45,000,000 euros for the 25-year-old stopper.It may sound like a lot, but in this day and age – it’s ‘not much’. Disasi has already played 130 games in Ligue 1, and he was also a member of the French national team that played in the World Cup finals in Qatar last year. He signed the contract for six years.Disasi arrived in London to give Pochettino another option in the position of right stopper. Benoit Badiashile is also injured, and the arrival of Disassi hints that Trevoh Chalobah could leave Stamford. Inter and West Ham are interested in the Englishman.##NAJAVA_MECA_7409564##Pochettino now has Thiago Silva, the young Levi Colwill, the injured Badiashile – although he will return soon – and the inexperienced 20-year-old Bashir Humphreys, who will most likely go on loan. It is clear that without Disasi the situation would not be promising, so Lawrence Stewart, the right hand of the sports director, immediately picked up Axel, because he knows him well from the period when he worked in Monaco.The Dukes, on the other hand, procrastinated until they found a replacement, which they did when they brought Mohammed Salisu from Southampton for 15,000,000 euros.Back to the Blues. Chelsea previously brought Christopher Nkunku (Leipzig/€60,000,000), Villarreal forward Nicolas Jackson (37,000,000), Rennes midfielder Lesley Ugochukwu (27,000,000), with the fact that he will immediately go to Strasbourg on loan.Mateo Kovacic, Edouard Mendy, Kalidou Kulibaly, N’Golo Kante, Mason Mount, Kai Havertz, Christian Pulisic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Ethan Ampadu, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and former captain Cesar Azpilicueta left the club. The Blues earned a total of 253,900,000 euros on all of them, but let’s not forget that last season they spent an incredible amount of 611,490,000 euros on new signings.Axel is ready to get to it! 💪 pic.twitter.com/EQFipRjBnw— Chelsea FC (@ChelseaFC) August 4, 2023
