**West Ham are closing in on the signing of Axel Disasi from Chelsea, it has been reported by ExWHUEmployee.**
Our insider has provided the update, with the defender set to arrive at the club to undertake his medical.
“West Ham look set to complete the loan signing of Chelsea centre back Axel Disasi,” stated Ex on The West Ham Way Patreon. “As we exclusively revealed at the start of the window he was a target, the club have now decided to go ahead with the deal especially given the 3 game suspension to Todibo following his red card against Chelsea.
“Chelsea had originally wished to sell the player or at least loan him with an obligation but it appears that West Ham have managed to negotiate paying more upfront to make the loan happen until the end of the season without a commitment to signing him beyond this season.
“The player is due to arrive at the club for his medical in the coming hours and then complete his deal. Other options are also being explored but it seems like we will sign Disasi regardless of these now.
“I have also been told that it appears the move for Spurs’ sub keeper Kinsky is off. Our rivals seem reluctant to sanction the deal. It is unclear on whether West Ham will move for an other keeper and it could depend on whether Mads Hermansen leaves West Ham on loan.”
