Watch: Jorginho's Mum Has A Better First Touch Than Tiemoue Bakayoko

Clearly he's learnt a thing off his mother...

Jorginho has made an impressive start for Chelsea after his big money move from Napoli - and it appears as though he's got some of his footballing ability from his mother.

The Brazilian-born Italian has a very close bond with his mum and has posted several videos of the two of them playing 'keepie uppies' together.

Not only is she very handy with the ball at her feet, it's fair to say she's got a better touch than Tiemoue Bakayoko - the man Chelsea have offloaded to AC Milan after just one year at the club.

Chelsea Ladies are one of the best sides in the world and won the WSL comfortably last term but I reckon they might as well sign Jorginho's mum up as an extra option.

The tekkers on show are quite sublime, so it's no wonder her son is deemed one of the best passers in world football and was desperately wanted by Pep Guardiola.

He also demonstrated his ability by converting a lovely penalty on his Premier League debut in the 3-0 win over Huddersfield on Saturday.

His mother, who played an integral role in is footballing upbringing, is so proud of what her son has achieved - so much so that when she saw his name on the Chelsea shirt in the club's mega store, she was reduced to tears.

The moment she first laid eyes on it is really beautiful.

The 26-year old also has a close connection with his dogs, who he proudly displays on his shinpads which he wears during games.
