Jorginho recently wrote in The Players’ Tribune:
Jorginho joined Chelsea from Napoli in a deal worth £57 million in July 2018. The midfielder was Maurizio Sarri’s hot choice in defensive midfield, which angered some of the fans who preferred N’Golo Kante in that role.
So far, the 29-year-old has made 145 appearances for Chelsea across all competitions, recording 17 goals and four assists to his name. He’s featured in all of the Blues’ Premier League games this season.
Jorginho’s spectacular year with Chelsea and Italy
This is undoubtedly the brightest year of the career of the former Napoli midfielder. Jorginho played an influential role as Chelsea made history by winning the Champions League crown in May.
That was followed by another successful outing with his nation at the European Championship this summer, where Italy defeated England to win the coveted prize. Jorginho returned to club action with another triumph as Chelsea beat Villareal to claim the UEFA Super Cup last month.
The midfielder has been honored with the UEFA Men’s Player of the Year award, pipping Chelsea teammate N’Golo Kante and Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne to claim the accolade.
