Chelsea are open to letting Axel Disasi join Aston Villa in the final hours of the January transfer window, journalist Ben Jacobs has exclusively told GIVEMESPORT.
The Blues reportedly have no issue offloading Disasi to a Premier League rival competing for Champions League football, despite initial suggestions that Villa may struggle to land the 26-year-old for that reason.
According to Jacobs, it may all depend on whether Villa can offer terms close to those Tottenham proposed in their loan deal for the French defender.
Spurs reportedly agreed a short-term deal with Chelsea worth £5m, with no option for a permanent transfer, before Disasi turned the move down.

Deal remains ‘one to watch’ before the deadline
Jacobs, speaking exclusively to GIVEMESPORT, has revealed that Chelsea would not block Disasi’s move to Villa simply because both clubs are competing for a Champions League spot:
“It’s not true, to my understanding, despite some suggestions that Chelsea would block a move to Villa because they’re both competing for Champions League football. “It’s just about whether Villa get somewhere close to the same terms that Spurs were offering on a loan.
