West Ham have added defensive depth by signing Axel Disasi on loan from Chelsea until the end of the season. The 27-year-old has been sidelined at Stamford Bridge this term and joins the Hammers as they battle to climb away from the Premier League relegation zone.

Disasi, who previously featured regularly under Mauricio Pochettino at Monaco, brings experience that could stabilize West Ham’s backline. His arrival comes at a critical time, with the club needing wins to preserve their top-flight status. The defender expressed eagerness to prove his worth and get back on the pitch.

The move also reflects Chelsea’s ongoing squad rebalancing under new ownership. With several defenders vying for places, offloading players like Disasi offers both financial flexibility and clearer pathways for others. West Ham fans will hope his presence can shore up a leaky defense.
