West Ham's new loanee, Axel Disasi says he wants to "feel the sensation of games" after falling out of favour at Chelsea.
The 27-year-old featured in 44 games across all competitions for Chelsea in his debut 2023-24 season, but in his third campaign with the club he has not featured once.
"I'm very happy to be here, to have this opportunity," Disasi told West Ham's club media. "I'm just ready to fight and to play games."
Disasi joined Aston Villa on loan during the winter transfer window last season and featured 10 times during his time with Unai Emery's side.
"Everyone knows my situation in the last few months, so I just want to get back on the field, feel the sensation of games and help the team, he added.
"The club has given me the opportunity to show my quality on the pitch. I spoke with all the people here, and I feel that they really wanted me, so that's why I'm here today."
Although West Ham still sit in the relegation zone Nuno Espirito Santo's side have picked up six points from a possible nine in their last three games.
Disasi said: "It's an exciting challenge. We know that the club is not at the place that it should be, but I'm here to help the team and to bring what I can to achieve our goal."
