Jorginho: Maurizio Sarri Is Not My Friend

DBasia.news –  Chelsea midfielder Jorginho was not sad being left by Maurizio Sarri to Juventus. In fact, according to him, now is the right time to open a new page.

Jorginho’s relationship with Maurizio Sarri has been established since 2015. In fact, there is a presumption that Jorginho is Maurizio Sarri’s golden son while in Naples. Jorginho was mentioned as the key to Sarriball’s tactics.

However, currently, Maurizio Sarri has headed for Juventus to replace Massimiliano Allegri. Jorginho claimed not to be disappointed and was ready to return to prove himself at Chelsea.

“He is my coach, not my friend. We worked together for four seasons, but this is another time and is a new page. This is another time in life, I am looking forward to it,” Jorginho told Goal.

“I was abandoned, but I stayed here and was working for Chelsea at the moment. I still have a four-year contract. I am very happy to be in London and Chelsea. I hope I can stay here long.”

The entry of Frank Lampard also made a change of position for Jorginho. Previously, players who had a lineage from Brazil played in a 4-3-3 formation. Jorginho is usually flanked by two other midfielders in midfield.

Now, Chelsea use a 4-2-3-1 formation. Against Barcelona, Jorginho played as a midfielder with Mateo Kovacic.

Jorginho felt the change was not difficult. The player considered the new position at this time could make his ability to develop.

“This still feels new to me. However, I like it. I have more space to create things. I am freer, so I can do many things using the creativity I have. So, I like it,” explained Jorginho.

Last season, the 27-year-old player appeared in 54 matches with a score of two goals. At present, Jorginho is still under contract until the end of June 2023.
