"Harry Maguire regen", "These guys are playing career mode" - Fans react as Chelsea are reportedly set to sign 25-year-old star
Fans have reacted to the reports of Chelsea's purported transfer for highly rated AS Monaco and French defender Axel Disasi this summer.
Transfer expert David Orstein broke the news that the Blues have reached an agreement with AS Monaco for Disasi. The transfer is believed to be in the region of €45 million.
Disasi's rumored transfer comes in the wake of Chelsea being linked with a new center-back following the injury suffered to Wesley Fofana.
The 21-year-old French defender picked up an ACL injury which is expected to sideline him for a long period of time. Fofana underwent a corrective surgery earlier this month.
Should the move eventually go through, Disasi will reunite with former teammate Benoit Badisahile. The duo formed a solid center-back partnership at Monaco before Badiashile's departure during last January transfer window.
Fans on Twitter were quick to react to Chelsea's latest piece of business in the summer transfer window. One fan sarcastically compared Disasi to Manchester United centre-back Harry Maguire.
