Rosenior brought Disasi back into first-team training after a year out, driven by need and a reset approach, while Adarabioyo is out for weeks and Sterling remains outside the main group.

Rosenior says he will speak to Sterling and Disasi after their exclusion from first-team training this season under Maresca. Both are training separately from the main squad; Sterling has not played this season and Disasi has not played in the league since January 20, 2025. Napoli are linked with Sterling; Roma and Lyon have asked about Disasi. Chelsea cannot approve another overseas loan unless they cancel an existing foreign loan because they already have six players out abroad.

Raheem Sterling is open to moves beyond London as he looks to leave Chelsea after being left out of domestic and Champions League squads and training away from the first team. West Ham and Fulham remain linked, but staying in the capital is not being treated as a hard requirement.

Reports now suggest interest is increasing and he will consider any deal that fits his personal and family conditions, not only London options.

Roma have identified Axel Disasi and Radu Dragusin as January defensive targets, aiming to strengthen at the back. 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. Reports say Disasi cannot leave on loan because Chelsea have used their domestic loan slots, so any move must be permanent. Roma are exploring terms while other clubs are also monitoring. Tottenham’s Dragusin is also on Roma’s list as a separate option.

Current season, ahead of the January transfer window

Axel Disasi (Chelsea), long exiled to the club’s so called bomb squad, has reportedly been seen training with the first team at Cobham despite Enzo Maresca insisting there is no way back, raising questions over his status ahead of a possible January move.
Frozen out after turning down loans to West Ham, Bournemouth and Sunderland, Disasi has captained the Under 21s and earned praise for mentoring youngsters, while Pat Nevin warned that harsh treatment of outcasts like Disasi and Raheem Sterling (Chelsea) can damage squad spirit and trust.
