Jorginho representative Jorge Santos said “nothing can be ruled out” regarding his client’s future.
Chelsea player Jorginho is reportedly open to a return to Serie A. The Brazil-born Italy international joined the Blues from Napoli, where he played under former London boss Maurizio Sarri, in 2018 and He has two years left on his current contract.
However, Thomas Tuchel has a plethora of options to choose from in his engine room, and Jorginho’s agent admits the proper draft could get the midfielder out of Stamford Bridge.
“Football is going fast and nothing can be ruled out,” Santos told Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli.
“If Sarri returns to Napoli, he will try to bring Jorginho back. He is perfect for his football. I can’t rule it out. He has two years left on his contract and he is a regular holder for Italy. However, with a good project, he would be ready to come back. “
There are rumors that Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis is not happy with the team’s performance and has already contacted Sarri about the possibility of replacing current coach Gennaro Gattuso.
Indeed, Gattuso himself appears to be aware that his position is under threat, conceding to the press that the upcoming Serie A clash with Juventus could be his last on the Azzurri bench.
“I don’t know, you have to ask the club. The captain of the ship is me, when the going gets tough it’s at the captain’s expense. I can’t take this as the penultimate or the last resort, I have to work and I have to be able to trust. I am a coach, that’s how it is. I will not be the first or the last, but I have a duty to try to the end. “
N’Golo Kante is widely regarded as one of the best central midfielders in football, but new manager Tuchel has favored a double pivot with Jorginho and Mateo Kovacic in his first four Premier League appearances.
The relationship between the two saw Chelsea dominate possession. To wonder if Kante will be able to dethrone one or the other of the two in the center of the field. For now, however, it looks like Sarri’s favorite Jorginho is definitely a part of Tuchel’s plans.
