At the end of the contract in June with the Gunners, Jorginho is one of the players who could leave Europe in the coming hours. According to GloboFlamengo would have made an offer to Arsenal for the 3rd of the Golden Ball 2021. Offer rejected by the English club which considers it insufficient. But faced with the risk of seeing the Italian midfielder go freely in June, and the insistence of Flamengo to attract him, the men of Mikel Arteta are greatly under pressure, and could let him go.
The Gunners believe that it lacks time to find a replacement for a position where the club is not particularly provided. With another three competitions to compete (Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup), Arsenal cannot afford to present a reduced workforce, with only Mikel Merino and Declan Rice at the Post of Sentinel. The departure of Jorginho, holder and scorer in the Champions League against Girona, would be problematic in the rotation of Mikel Arteta.
