Jorginho's agent leaves door open for summer move away from Arsenal: "He can go..."

The agent of Arsenal star Jorginho has refused to rule out a move away from the Gunners for his client, despite only joining the club in January.

The Italian midfielder signed for Arsenal from Premier League rivals Chelsea on deadline day. He had entered the final six months of his deal at Stamford Bridge.

Jorginho moved to the Emirates on an initial 18-month contract, with the club holding the option to extend by a further year.

The 31-year-old, therefore, could remain at the Gunners until 2025 on his current deal.

He has already had an impact on Mikel Arteta's side, hitting the crossbar with an effort that rebounded off goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez to give his side a 3-2 lead at Aston Villa - a game they went on to win 4-2 - in February.

He has started six games in all competitions for Arsenal, although has been on the bench for each of their last three Premier League games.

Jorginho has now joined up with the Italy squad for their upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers.

He could line up against Gunners team-mates Bukayo Saka and Aaron Ramsdale when Roberto Mancini's side take on England tonight - and his agent, Joao Santos, has been speaking about his future prior to the game kicking off.

Jorginho agent on Arsenal future

In an interview with Italian network Radio Crc (via Napoli Magazine), Santos was asked about Jorginho's future, and whether Arsenal would be his long-term footballing home.

He said: "Jorginho can win the Premier League with Arsenal, there are 10 games left which will be 10 finals.

"It has been years since he has won the championship, so there is great motivation.

"Go back to Italy? Football is dynamic, when Arsenal took [him] the Italian teams didn't need a player like Jorginho. With his characteristics and his very intelligent football, he can get anywhere."

With Italy vs England taking place in Naples, Santos was also asked about the impressive campaign to date enjoyed by Jorginho's former club Napoli, who are top of Serie A by 19 points with 11 games to play under Luciano Spalletti. They are also into the Champions League quarter-finals, where they face AC Milan.

"Napoli is having a great season in the league and in the Champions League, let's hope for the best," Santos said.

"The work of [owner, Aurelio] De Laurentiis and [sporting director, Cristiano] Giuntoli is incredible and this project has been going on for years."
