Man Utd set to hold contract talks with experienced star

The Italy international is currently a key player under manager Thomas Tuchel. He has recently bagged assists in successive games.

Despite this, there has been continued speculation through his representative that he could return to Serie A in the future.

Speaking to Calciomercato, Santos has now revealed that Jorginho may prioritise a new deal with Chelsea following the takeover.

However, he added that the Bianconeri are still interested in signing his client.

He said: \"The market is blocked for Chelsea, if the situation gets resolved, the priority will be to extend the contract with Chelsea. I have not talked to Juventus but I know of their interest.\"

Jorginho has received a mixed opinion among Blues fans, but he has remained a regular starter under different managers.

Him and N\'Golo Kante have formed a solid partnership in the centre of the park, and the Blues are unlikely to entertain their exits.

Instead, they may look to bolster the squad further this summer. A move for Monaco\'s Aurelien Tchouameni could be on the cards.
