Jorginho had a magnificent 2020/21 season as he helped Chelsea win the Champions League before playing an important in Italy winning the Euros. He was named in the Team of the Tournament for both competitions.
The 29-year-old’s exploits earned him the UEFA Best Player in Europe award and third place in the Ballon d’Or.

Jorginho’s addition would definitely strengthen Juve’s midfield but it will be very hard to convince Chelsea to sell him.
