Report: Out of favour Chelsea star handed lifeline as Leeds discuss signing him this month

If any Chelsea player has not yet been given a chance by Liam Rosenior since he came to the club, it looks unlikely they will be able to resurrect their careers at the club.

Rosenior has offered opportunities to the majority of the squad across the four competitions he has already managed in, with some impressing more than others.

Filip Jorgensen looked set for far more opportunities under the Englishman, however has unfortunately suffered an injury against Paphos that will rule him out for a while.

The January transfer window has not seen Chelsea become particularly active so far, however the departure of more out of favour players cannot be discounted.

Leeds considering signing Axel Disasi from Chelsea

One of those players who is still yet to feature under Rosenior is Axel Disasi. The Frenchman has not made a single appearance for Chelsea this season.

Reports have previously stated that the Blues have offered Disasi to Tottenham after previous interest in him, it seems they aren’t the only Premier League club in the conversation.

According to the Mail Online, Leeds have discussed the idea of signing Disasi to bolster their own defensive options.

The two clubs have already seen transfer activity link them together this month. Facundo Buonanotte has returned from his loan at Chelsea, and is now at Elland Road.

Disasi may have believed Chelsea return was coming

While Raheem Sterling remains nowhere to be seen as far as Chelsea are concerned, the same cannot be said for the Frenchman.

Disasi has been spotted in training in recent days after positive conversations with Rosenior, although this has not resulted in more minutes.

The centre-back was spotted jostling with Joao Pedro in a training session ahead of the club’s trip across London to face Crystal Palace.

It has been over a year now since Disasi last appeared for Chelsea, and it feels as if it would be best for all parties if his time at the club came to an end.
