He insists he always wanted to remain at Chelsea and he has played an integral part in their promising start to the season.

Jorginho told ESPN Brazil: "I believe that every player is open to negotiations. So I believe there was something they talked about. And in the end it was decided that I remain here.

"Now my head is here and we're going to do a great job with Chelsea, which I always wanted to do."
