Maurizio Sarri wants Chelsea midfielder Jorginho at Juventus

Juventus manager Maurizio Sarri wants Chelsea midfielder Jorginho back to Italy ahead of the next season.

Juventus has offered Barcelona target Miralem Pjanic to Chelsea in a bid to sign Jorginho from the Stamford Bridge outfit.

The Serie A Champions are ready to offload the Serbian midfielder and want Chelsea midfielder Jorginho to be his replacement at the Allianz Stadium.

The 30-year-old has already been suggested as a potential makeweight in a deal for Manchester United’s Paul Pogba, while a swap deal with Barcelona has also been mooted.

Pjanic has already agreed on terms with Barcelona but Juventus is yet to reach terms with the La Liga giants for the sale of the Serbian midfielder.

Juventus manager Maurizio Sarri is a huge fan of Jorginho, having worked with the Italian midfielder in Napoli and Chelsea, Sarri is keen on signing him for Juventus at the end of next season.

Jorginho has been regular in Frank Lampard’s line up this season and the Chelsea boss would not entertain any idea of losing out the former Napoli midfielder in haste unless the otherwise happen and Jorginho pushed for a move out of Stamford Bridge to Juventus where he is wanted by his former boss.
