AS Monaco is pleased to announce the signing of Axel Disasi for the next five years. The French defender is now contracted with AS Monaco until June 2025.
The Principality’s club and Stade de Reims have reached an agreement for the transfer of the 22-year-old defender (1.90m). The former U-20 international has been approached by a number of French and European teams and has chosen AS Monaco.
The central defender, who made his professional debut for Paris FC, regularly stood out in their youth teams before making his debut at just 17 in 2015-16.
Signed by Stade de Reims at the end of that same season, he continued his development by becoming Ligue 2 champion in 2017-18 and then one of the pillars of Stade de Reims’s defence (27 out of 28 matches) last season. It was also a successful year for him, as he made a remarkable contribution to Stade de Reims’s honorary title as the best defence in Ligue 1 2019/20, conceding just 21 goals in 28 matches.
We are delighted that Axel has chosen to join AS Monaco. His qualities as a defender, his maturity and his experience in Ligue 1, despite his young age, will be additional assets that we are happy to make available to Niko Kovac's squad for the next five seasons.
Paul MitchellSporting Director
