‘Hope He Renews’ ‘We Won’t Sell Our Maestro’ Fans React As Agent Provide New Update On Chelsea Midfielder’s Future

David Tully Mar 18th 2022

The agent of Chelsea midfielder Jorginho has confirmed that the player wants to renew his contract with the Blues when the ownership situation is resolved.

Joao Santos says that he is aware of interest from Juventus but the first priority will be to extend the Italian’s stay at Stamford Bridge, if at all possible:

“I haven’t talked to Juventus, but I know of their interest in Jorginho. We have a contract with Chelsea until 2023 and it is a particular moment for the club, where there are no negotiations because the market is blocked both in entry and in exit. If the situation unfolds, the priority will be to deal with the renewal. Should Chelsea fail to renew their contract, then we will listen to all the teams involved.”

Unsurprisingly, the remarks have gone down pretty well on Twitter, with the majority of fans keen on Jorginho extending his current deal with the London club:


It must be said that Jorginho’s form has been pretty poor in recent months but his superb through ball for Christian Pulisic’s goal against Lille on Wednesday night demonstrated the skill that he possesses.

As Santos points out, no talks over renewal can happen until a takeover of the club is complete. The deadline for offers is thought to be today and we should find out soon enough about who the preferred bidders are.
