Watch TV 2’s Deadline Day broadcast now on TV 2 Sport 2 and i our brand new transition center here.
Jorginho is ready for Arsenal, the club confirms. The Italian midfielder is signed from Chelsea on Deadline Day.
– He is a midfielder with intelligence, leadership and a lot of experience from the national team and the Premier League, says Mikel Arteta.
He is said to have signed an agreement until the summer of 2024 with an option for an additional year. The transition should be worth around NOK 130 million.
– I think it is a good agreement. A good Partey replacement if needed, because we remember how much they struggled last year when he was injured, says TV 2’s football expert Yaw Amankwah.
– I imagine him as an Arteta player. It makes sense, adds colleague Mina Finstad Berg.
Chelsea have spent money this window and are trying to bring in Enzo Fernandez from Benfica towards the end of the window.
The 31-year-old has been at Chelsea since 2018. In 2021, he came third in the Ballon d’or voting, having won both the Champions League and the European Football Championship for Italy.
