Barcelona and PSG linked with Chelsea midfielder

Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain have emerged as contenders to sign Chelsea midfielder Jorginho this summer.

The Italy international has been with the Blues for the past four years, but could be on the move in the next transfer window.

Juventus have already been linked with him, but La Repubblica claims that Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are also keen.

Jorginho will enter the final year of his Blues deal this summer, and he is reluctant to accept a 12-month rolling contract.

The Blues are currently banned from any transfer or contract activity amid the sanctions placed on owner Roman Abramovich.

However, the scenario could change in the coming weeks with a takeover expected. This could pave the way for Jorginho's exit.

The 30-year-old has recently been a regular on the bench, but he could feature against Crystal Palace in the FA Cup semi-final.

The Blues are aiming to make the final of the competition for the third-straight season. They have lost in the last two occasions.
