Disasi showed impressive durability for Monaco last season as they finished sixth in France, playing in every single one of the club’s 49 competitive matches across Ligue 1, the Coupe de France and European football. He scored six goals in these matches and created four more.
Over this time, he also became an international and has four France caps, even turning out for a single minute in the World Cup final.
Although typically a centre-back, he can also play as a right-back, which is where he has been used by Didier Deschamps when playing with Les Bleus.
Disasi has an Expected Transfer Value (xTV) of €20m, which suggests that Chelsea are paying over the odds to sign him.
