West Ham United complete deadline day loan deal for Chelsea defender Disasi
The 26-year-old defender joins West Ham United on a temporary basis after conversations between all parties accelerated in recent days. The Hammers moved decisively to secure Disasi ahead of rival interest, providing manager Nuno Espirito Santo with additional defensive depth as the campaign enters a crucial phase.
Sky Sports News understands the arrangement is a straight loan deal until the end of the season with no obligations or options to buy permanently. This clarity allowed West Ham United to act swiftly, landing a player capable of immediate Premier League impact without long-term financial commitments that typically complicate January business.
For Chelsea, the temporary move offers a pragmatic solution as they continue streamlining their squad and managing minutes across competitions.

The France international arrives with a profile that fits West Ham United’s immediate needs perfectly.
