Romano: Chelsea in Talks for Lacroix; Crystal Palace Inquire About Disasi
According to Fabrizio Romano's YouTube podcast, Chelsea is actively pursuing the signing of Crystal Palace center-back Maxence Lacroix, with an agreement with the player largely in place and smooth progress between clubs. In related discussions, Crystal Palace verbally inquired about Chelsea defender Axel Disasi, who recently returned from a loan at West Ham.
