Jorginho Chelsea contract stance revealed amid huge Graham Potter verdict and N'Golo Kante blow

Jorginho is set to prioritise signing a new contract at Chelsea amid an increasingly uncertain future at Stamford Bridge. The 30-year-old, who sees his contract with the Blues expire at the end of the season, has been heavily linked with an exit from west London recently.

The Italy international will be eligible to begin pre-contract talks with foreign clubs in January over a free transfer in the summer if he fails to pen a new deal with Chelsea. And, according to the Evening Standard, Barcelona are weighing up a move for the midfielder.

However, Jorginho's agent - Joao Santos - has clarified that his client is focused on securing a long-term future at the Blues, despite reports. Speaking to Tuttomercatoweb, Santos said: "We are due in June. We prioritise Chelsea and we are moving towards it. Another priority for Jorginho is to do well with the national team."
