Tottenham Hotspur are exploring the possibility of signing Chelsea defender Axel Disasi on loan, CaughtOffside has been told.

The 26-year-old has found his first-team opportunities limited at Stamford Bridge this season, prompting interest from several Premier League clubs, with the latest being the Blues’ rivals Spurs.

Since joining Chelsea from AS Monaco in 2023 for approximately £35 million, Disasi has struggled to secure a regular spot in the starting lineup. Under manager Enzo Maresca, he has made just three Premier League appearances, totalling 184 minutes.

Aston Villa have previously expressed interest in a loan move for Disasi, but now Spurs have come to the table. We are told Chelsea are open to allowing the defender to leave on loan given his limited role in the team.

Disasi’s versatility allows him to play both as a central defender and as a right-back, providing tactical flexibility for Lilywhites boss Ange Postecoglou, who is contending with an unprecedented injury crisis and has asked for fresh faces this January transfer window.

It comes after the latest injury blow to Spurs’ backline. Radu Dragusin is set to miss Tottenham’s Premier League match against Brentford on Sunday.

The defender came on for Micky van de Ven at half-time in Thursday’s 3-0 win over Elfsborg, which secured Spurs a spot in the Europa League top eight.

However, Dragusin was forced to leave the pitch just 20 minutes later after an awkward landing on his knee, and he is currently being assessed.

Although Postecoglou is still uncertain about the extent of the injury, Dragusin will not be part of the squad for this weekend’s game.

“We’ll let it settle down and obviously get some information over the weekend,” he said. “Not available for the weekend at the moment and we just have to see the extent of it.

“Hard to tell [if it is serious]. It’s a knee, so we’ve got to let it settle down. There’s always concern when there’s a knee injury but we don’t know the extent.”
