The agent of Arsenal midfielder Jorginho has dropped a hint at being open to returning to Serie A at some point ahead of contract talks with the Gunners later this season.

It remains to be seen what the final decision on Jorginho’s future will be, but Fabrizio Romano has posted on X to quote his agent as suggesting they could be open to the possibility of a move back to Serie A at some point…

Jorginho transfer: Arsenal deal will be midfielder’s priority

While Jorginho could return to Italy at some point, his agent has made it clear for now that Arsenal talks will be a priority, with discussions over his situation set to take place later on.

AFC would do well to keep Jorginho for at least another season, but it may also be that they’ll decide to make a fresh start and bring in some younger players in midfield instead.
