Jorginho arrived at Stamford Bridge from Napoli in 2018 and he’s been an integral figure for Chelsea since then.
The midfielder’s current deal expires in 2023 and last December, his agent admitted there has been “no talk of renewal” with the west London club. The representative had also said it is possible for his client to return to Italy.
Towards the end of January, TuttoMercatWeb reported Juventus ‘will do everything’ to sign the 30-year-old in the summer.
Tutto Juve now discuss the Turin club’s interest in the former Napoli midfielder and in a short report, they say the Old Lady will ‘probe’ Thomas Tuchel’s star for the next window.
The player ‘could be tempted’ to return to Serie A after this season. Massimiliano Allegri’s side, who are interested in him, could offer the Brazil-born Italy international a four-year contract. The website adds Juve plan to spend €20m, likely on the transfer fee.
Adrien Rabiot gets a mention as the French midfielder is ‘liked’ by Chelsea and ‘could be considered functional’, likely by the Champions League winners. The report adds Juventus could use him as a ‘counterpart’ to get Jorginho.
There’s no mention or anything to suggest whether Rabiot and/or Chelsea are in favour of this operation.
