Disasi's Chelsea Comeback: A New Era Under Rosenior?
21 Jan
Summary
- Axel Disasi returns to first-team training after a year out.
- Tosin Adarabioyo faces several weeks sidelined with hamstring injury.
- Raheem Sterling remains exiled, with club seeking January exit.
Chelsea defender Axel Disasi has been offered a lifeline by new manager Liam Rosenior, returning to first-team training after nearly a year in exile. Disasi had been training in isolation since January 20, 2025, following a failed loan spell and a lack of permanent move opportunities.
Rosenior confirmed face-to-face talks with the French international, emphasizing a 'clean slate for everybody.' While Disasi's reintegration offers a potential boost, he faces a significant period to regain match fitness. This development occurs amidst a defensive injury crisis, with Tosin Adarabioyo ruled out for several weeks due to a hamstring issue.
Separately, Raheem Sterling remains outside the main squad, with Chelsea actively seeking a transfer before the January transfer window concludes. The club is prioritizing finding Sterling a permanent exit.
