Arrived in 2018 at Chelsea, Jorginho admits however that he was very close to joining Manchester City.

After a very good season in Naples , Jorginho decides to leave Italy for the first time and follows Maurizio Sarri to Chelsea . During the summer of 2018, the Blues therefore spent € 57m to recruit the Italian international who, however, admits that he imagined himself much more easily in Manchester City . “I had been working with Sarri for three years, so when he wanted me at Chelsea, I didn't really want to. I had started discussions with Manchester City, I could see myself there already. But, hey, Chelsea insisted and today I'm very happy here. Especially after such an incredible year 2021. It is absolutely “surreal”. I often use this adjective, “surreal”, because what is happening to me is so big that I can hardly believe it. I hadn't even dared to dream of it. That all these successes fall on me after all that I have lived, I do not have the words to describe it, to justify it. I'm sorry if I find it difficult to express it, but I can assure you that I savor everything that happens to me, ”reveals Jorginho in the columns of France Football.
