Expectations are high that Axel Disasi will soon be joining Manchester United
Axel Disasi, a 24-year-old French defender currently playing for AS Monaco, has been linked to a transfer to Manchester United
Manchester United will reportedly keep tabs on AS Monaco defender Axel Disasi, according to Tutto Mercato Web. The French defender is regarded as one of the league’s brightest young talents.
Man United coach Erik ten Hag has favoured Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez as centre defense. Also, despite having Harry Maguire available, he recently utilized Luke Shaw in the middle of the defense.
Maguire’s future at Manchester United is unknown, and the defender has been urged many times to leave Old Trafford in search of greater possibilities. The 29-year-old is anticipated to play a significant role, but with the depth of the present team, ten Hag is unlikely to approve of his departure.
There have been rumours that the English defender will join Aston Villa. But it seems probable that Maguire will finish the season at Old Trafford. However, Manchester United is still looking to add a central defender, and Disasi has caught their eye.
Disasi is a skilled passer and a quick thinker who can swiftly neutralize threats. Therefore, by acquiring him, Manchester United United will be able to effectively play out of the back. He has come a long way for a man of just 24 years old, and the future is looking bright for him.
It might take some time for Disasi to adjust to the rough and tumble of the Premier League, and he may need some help along the way. However, the French defender has been hailed as a future star in the position of central defence.
He is also capable of filling in for the defence on the right side. So Manchester United may want to keep an eye on his adaptability. Since the 24-year-old’s contract doesn’t expire until 2025, Monaco will not let him go for cheap. However, negotiations are underway between the youngster and the Red Devils.
Possibly the next summer, Manchester United will have to scrounge up the funds to get yet another defender. The French international player should be at the top of their priority list. At the 2022 FIFA World Cup, Disasi was a member of France’s roster and played the whole match in their loss to Tunisia. Tottenham is also said to be interested in signing him. Manchester United, though, is convinced that they can close a deal when the time is perfect.
