The rumors linked with Italian and Chelsea midfielder Jorginho and Juventus have been around for years. It seemed most likely to happen when Maurizio Sarri was the coach of the Old Lady during the 2019-2020 season. Jorginho signed for Chelsea in 2018 when the Italian coach was in charge of the London club after previously playing for him at Napoli, but he did not continue the pattern with Juventus.
The current manager Massimiliano Allegri wants the Euro 2020 winner for his midfield. According to Giovanne Albanese from Gazetta Dello Sport, “Jorginho is flattered by Juventus’ interest. Allegri has long placed him at the top of his list of favorites. The player is ready to start fresh after 4 years in the Premier League. His fee is relatively affordable, which has intrigued Juventus. A deal seems within reach.”
