OFFICIAL Announcement made – World Class act sends first message after signing with Arsenal

Jorginho has called Arsenal’s title challenge this season a “beautiful journey” after agreeing a contract extension at the Premier League leaders.

The Italy midfielder, 32, joined from Chelsea for £12m in January 2023 on an 18-month deal which was about to run out at the end of the season and there was alot of speculation that he will be leaving the club.

However – after months of speculation and rumours – it was announced today that Jorginho will be staying at the Emirates next season after agreeing to extend his current contract.

Jorginho, who has made 35 ARSENAL appearances in this campaign, said: “I’m really happy to stay, because it’s a privilege to be a part of this family. My family is happy, we are really well settled and there’s more to come!”

The 32-year-old added that it was a simple decision to put pen to paper, and his conversations with Mikel Arteta and Edu were brief.

“There was not much to discuss to be honest,” he smiled, “because I feel really good here. Just to know that they appreciate me and want me to stay longer as well, it’s a big thing for me. I feel that I have more to do, so that’s the reason why I’m staying.”

Many ARSENAL fans will not be shocked to see that Jorginho is staying at the club  -he is a brilliant midfielder that adds so much to that Arsenal midfield – and keeping him will save a whole load of transfer funds.

This is massive news and now Arsenal fans will be hoping that a few more players commit to the cub and a few new faces make the move to London at the end of the season.
