However, Veiga’s desire to play at centre-back means he has already agreed personal terms on a January move to Borussia Dortmund – who have an excellent record of developing young stars and are extremely interested in a mid-season deal for the 21-year-old.
Chelsea have already rejected a loan offer from Wolvesand they won’t be entertaining temporary transfer proposals of any kind, as they have set Veiga’s asking price at around £25m.
Meanwhile, Nkunku intended to move to Bayern Munich. The France international is one of Chelsea’s top scorers in all competitions, with 13 in all competitions, but Maresca appears to regard him as an influential player off the bench when it comes to regular opportunities in Premier League.
Most of his starts have come in cup competitions, and that doesn’t seem to satisfy the 26-year-old, as Nkunku verbally agrees to a contract to leave Chelsea for Bayern.
Both parties are now in the process of negotiating his transfer to the Allianz Arena (Florian Plettenberg), but Fabrizio Romano says another Chelsea player could join Nkunku and Veiga in heading for the exit door.
Chelsea are negotiating the release of defender Axel Disasi in January
According to Roman, that man is 38 million pounds defender Axel Disasi.
The centre-back, often used by Maresca as a full-back when Malo Gusto and Reece James were unavailable, is expected to be left out of the squad for the game against Bournemouth tonight.
Major clubs are in talks to explore a move for Disasi in Januaryaccording to Roman, after Chelsea held talks with the Frenchman over his future. Following these talks with Disasi, the west Londoners are now ready to let him go before February 3rd.
Tagged as “leader” in the squad for some of his appearances, Disasi continues to face strong competition for regular playing time, and his departure now seems firmly in sight.
