Disasi has been frozen out at Chelsea since returning from his Aston Villa loan, and Chelsea are prepared to sell after signing him in 2023.

Tottenham’s Dragusin is also on Roma’s list as a separate option.

United also expect to miss out to Manchester City for Antoine Semenyo, forcing a pivot in January plans.
