Juventus have taken the first step towards signing Chelsea midfielder Jorginho in the summer transfer window, according to reports. The 30-year-old, who has been heavily linked with a move back to the Serie A, sees his contract at Stamford Bridge expire at the end of next season.
The Italy international has featured 42 times for Thomas Tuchel's side this season, and was central to the Blues' success in the early stages of the campaign. However, amid the ongoing uncertainty at the club, doubt has been casted over the midfielder's future in west London.
Jorginho's agent Joao Santos confirmed to Tuttomercatoweb that his client has attracted the attention of five Serie A clubs, with Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain interested too. He said: "Playing in Serie A is a dream for him and his heart remains here," Santos told Tuttomercatoweb. "As things stand today, he could play for four or five clubs: Milan, Inter, Juve, Roma or Napoli.
