Jorginho, a Chelsea midfielder, is reportedly being pursued by Juventus in a trade deal. 

The Turin giants could give Adrien Rabiot to the Blues in exchange for Jorginho, according to Tuttomercatoweb (via Juvefc). 

According to the article, if the English giants refuse to accept the exchange offer, the Old Lady will attempt to sell Rabiot. The monies will subsequently be used to sign Jorginho. 

Jorginho's contract at Stamford Bridge is up in a year. He has expressed no desire to stay at the club longer, and a return to Serie A may be on the cards. 

In 179 appearances for Chelsea across all competitions, the 30-year-old has 26 goals and seven assists.

 

In 2021, the former Napoli midfielder had a fantastic year, winning the UEFA Champions League with Chelsea and then won the European Championships with Italy. He finished third in the Ballon d'Or rankings for his performances and achievements for club and country. 

Rabiot is on the other end of the spectrum when it comes to success. He arrived on a free transfer from PSG in 2019, bringing with him a developing reputation as one of France's most talented midfielders. However, the 26-year-old has fallen short of expectations, and many believe Juventus should cut ties with him. 

In 119 appearances for the Bianconeri in all competitions, Rabiot has six goals and as many assists.
