Chelsea put forward Disasi to Newcastle for transfer consideration

With Newcastle United looking to bolster their defense before tonight's deadline, Disasi has been offered to the Toon as a potential centre-half option.

Transfer journalist Dean Jones told Givemesport: "Newcastle were given the opportunity to sign Disasi, with Eddie Howe being clear that he does not want him."

Chelsea told Newcastle they could sign Disasi for £38.5m.

However, Crystal Palace defender Marc Guéhi is the only centre-back that Howe wants in before the transfer window closes.
