Juventus want Chelsea’s Jorginho to return them to glory

The summer transfer window is approaching, and there’s plenty of gossip swirling about who’s moving where. Transfer Talk brings you all the latest buzz on rumours, comings and goings and, of course, done deals!

TOP STORY: Jorginho key to Juve’s overhaul

Juventus have made Chelsea midfielder Jorginho a top priority for this summer, according to Tuttosport.

Massimiliano Allegri is looking to establish a winning mentality in Turin and is planning an overhaul in midfield with hopes of landing a number of Italy internationals.

After Internazionale secured the league last season, Juventus have found themselves five points behind leaders AC Milan having played one more game than the three teams above them in the current campaign.

That has seen Juventus assessing a number of options as they prepare to rebuild a side that looks set to be without Paulo Dybala as the final months tick down on his contract. Jorginho will have just one year left on his deal at Stamford Bridge in the summer, and the Allianz Stadium hierarchy are planning to take advantage of that with a proposal that looks to tempt him to Turin.

The 30-year-old played a key part of Chelsea’s success in the Champions League last season as well as securing the European Championship with Italy, earning him a nomination for the Ballon d’Or.
