Jorginho admits that he has a desire to return to Napoli one day, where he spent four years before joining Chelsea in 2018.

Chelsea midfielder Jorginho has admitted his desire to return to Napoli, where he spent four years before joining the Blues in London.

The Italy international was influential in Chelsea's 2-0 win against Porto in their Champions League quarter-final first leg, providing the assist for Mason Mount's opener.

Jorginho joined Roman Abramovich's club in 2018 for around £50m and has gone on to score 16 goals and produce four assists in 128 appearances for the club.

Following Wednesday night's game, the 29-year-old did not rule out a return to Naples when speaking to Sky Sports News: "When you live in Naples you can never forget. I had a wonderful experience and I am very fond of the city and the fans.

"Now honestly I'm not thinking about it because my concentration is all on Chelsea, but if there is the possibility, one day, you don't know when, to return , of course I'd like it."

This season, Jorginho has made 30 appearances for the Blues and contributed seven goals for his team.
