Despite being such an instrumental player for Chelsea over the last couple of years, it appears that Jorginho’s time at Stamford Bridge could be coming to an end.
A return to Italy is expected, with his agent telling the local media as much every couple of weeks, but his next club remains a mystery.
Few could afford his current wages, but the likeliest out of those who can are Juventus, who are expected to undergo something of a revolution this summer.
Max Allegri’s first season since his return hasn’t gone to plan, and while a new manager isn’t expected to come in, some player turnaround should take place.
Chelsea’s Jorginho appears to be the ideal man for the midfield, and Calciomercato report ‘the first exploratory contacts’ between the player’s entourage and Juventus ‘took place in recent days’.
While the player is ‘fine’ where he is, he ‘doesn’t rule out a return to Italy’ as the ‘temptation to try a new professional experience doesn’t leave him indifferent’.
In fact, Federico Cherubini at Juventus has ‘memorised’ his financial requests and is ‘now waiting for signals from London’.
First, however, two things need to happen: Arthur needs to be sold and the ownership at Chelsea needs to change.
