Arsenal’s midfield maestro, Jorginho, has committed to the Gunners by signing a contract extension, reportedly for one year, with aspirations of clinching trophies with the club.
The 32-year-old Italian midfielder made a significant move from London rivals Chelsea to Arsenal in January 2023, initially on an 18-month deal. Since then, he has established himself as a key figure in Mikel Arteta’s squad vying for the Premier League title.
Having appeared 35 times across all competitions this season and netting a crucial goal in a Champions League victory over Lens, Jorginho’s impact on the pitch has been palpable.
Arsenal’s current position atop the Premier League standings, with only two games remaining, has intensified their pursuit of domestic glory, with Manchester City closely trailing by a point, holding a game in hand.
Jorginho, who boasts an impressive resume including triumphs in the Champions League, Europa League, and European Championship, is determined to add more silverware to his collection.
Expressing his aspirations for the future post-contract extension, Jorginho emphasized the importance of enjoyment and success in his career. He stated, “Win as much as I can, enjoy the moment because that’s really important for me.”
Manager Mikel Arteta expressed his delight at securing Jorginho’s services for the extended period. He praised Jorginho’s leadership qualities, unique playing style, and his ability to elevate the performance of those around him on the field.
