Jorginho's agent Joao Santos insists that the midfielder is happy at Chelsea but refuses to rule out a return to Italy in the future.

The agent of Chelsea midfielder Jorginho has opened the door to a potential exit from Stamford Bridge for his client.

Jorginho has struggled to nail down a regular spot in Frank Lampard's starting lineup this term and was criticised after missing his third penalty of the season in the Blues' 3-1 defeat to Arsenal on Boxing Day.

Despite finding himself in and out of the team, Jorginho's agent Joao Santos has affirmed that the midfielder is happy in the English capital, but a return to Italy in the future cannot be ruled out.

In quotes attributed to The Mirror, Santos said: "It was a great year for Jorge, he did very well in the national team as well. Next year there will be the European Championship, where he hopes to do very well with Italy.

"As for Chelsea, they are not very well-placed in the table now, but being a young team, it takes time. Jorge is a Chelsea player and he is very happy there, but I wouldn't rule out a return to Italy in future."

The former Napoli man has already found the back of the net four times in all competitions this term, but he has started just seven Premier League games for the Blues in the 2020-21 campaign.
