Atalanta lead the chase for Disasi

Serie A side Atalanta have emerged as serious contenders for Disasi’s signature, with reports suggesting that La Dea are closely monitoring his situation.

Disasi, who joined Chelsea from Monaco in 2023, has endured a difficult stint in the Premier League, making only four starts this season.

A combination of injuries, inconsistent form, and fierce competition has left him on the fringes of Enzo Maresca’s squad.

While Juventus previously showed interest, the Turin giants have shifted their focus to other targets, leaving Atalanta in pole position.

The Italian side sees Disasi as a valuable option to bolster their defensive line, though they remain open to alternatives such as Martin Erlić, who is also attracting attention from Parma.

Disasi to linkup with Lookman in Serie A?

The race for Disasi is far from straightforward, with Bundesliga clubs reportedly preparing offers as well and the final decision will rest with the player, who is eager to secure consistent playing time during the second half of the season.

A move to Atalanta would see Disasi join a team with growing ambitions in Serie A, featuring players like Ademola Lookman, who has thrived since his switch to Bergamo.

The Nigerian winger has become a key figure for La Dea, and the prospect of playing alongside him could appeal to Disasi.

For Atalanta, signing Disasi represents an opportunity to strengthen their defensive unit as they push for more major honours after getting a taste of glory in the Europa League last season.
