Chelsea are struggling to keep Jorginho in the squad

The London Blues are fighting to keep the Italian in their team as long as possible.

Chelsea’s Italian midfield master has been linked with a move away from the club to a North London side.

This has led him to speculate that of these two teams it is Tottenham and Arsenal that are luring him to join them.

But the Blues are making last efforts to keep their veteran in the team.

According to Italian journalist Matteo Moretto, Chelsea are planning a meeting with Jorginho before Christmas to discuss his future and offer him a new deal.

The club expects the 30-year-old to sign a new contract that would extend his stay at Chelsea for several more years.
