Juventus Must Contact Chelsea If They Need Jorginho, Says Agent

Juventus Must Contact Chelsea If They Need Jorginho, Says Agent

Agent Joao Santos has insisted that Serie A giants Juventus must make the first move if they need the services of his client Jorginho.

Jorginho has been flirting with a move away from Chelsea since last summer, particularly a return to Italy to reunite with old boss Maurizio Sarri, a man he previously worked with in Napoli and London.

The Brazilian-born Italian has been touted to be the replacement of Miralem Pjanic, who has been tipped with a move away from the Allianz Stadium this summer, with the likes of Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain all said to be keen on signing the Bosnian.

Santos has been speaking a lot recently regarding Jorginho’s future in West London but revealed there has been no approach to Chelsea from the Serie A champions.

"I only hear about these rumours from the newspapers, because nobody from Juventus has contacted me," he told TuttoJuve.com.

"Maurizio Sarri appreciates him very much as a person and a player, they worked very well together, but that's all there is to it right now. The player is focused only on Chelsea, he's resumed training and is preparing for the Premier League restart.

"In my view, it would be difficult for the Bianconeri to buy him today, because the transfer market has changed with the pandemic and Jorginho has a contract with Chelsea until 2023. He is the vice-captain and considered an important player for the squad.

"I don't just mean Juventus, but all the biggest European clubs would struggle to pay that much for one player right now."

Santos added: "If it should happen [a proposal from Juve], I say that anyone who wants Jorginho has to talk to Chelsea and Marina [Granovskaia]. Then we will evaluate together what to do. That would not be a problem."
