Will Axel Disasi join West Ham? It looks unlikely. Claret & Hugh reports that Crystal Palace have accelerated their move with a loan-to-buy offer and expects Disasi to choose Palace.

The outlet says the defender wants top-flight football, the clearest obstacle to a West Ham return. No player agreement or completed transfer has been reported.

Roma reportedly join race for Axel Disasi

Roma are reportedly interested in Axel Disasi, giving the Chelsea defender another alternative to a West Ham return. The West Ham Way says the Italian club have joined the race, though its account gives no detail of contact, talks or a bid.

The same outlet, citing Jack Rosser of The Sun, says Disasi has no interest in playing in the Championship. It also reports that West Ham have made their permanent interest clear to Chelsea and the player. That does not solve the decisive problem: Disasi is said to prefer staying in the Premier League or joining a club abroad playing European football.
