Chelsea midfielder Jorginho is confident that he can offer something never seen before in the Premier League following his move from Napoli.

New Chelsea signing Jorginho has claimed that he will be a breath of fresh air in the Premier League.

The Italy international is Chelsea's first acquisition of the summer, following new manager Maurizio Sarri from Napoli to Stamford Bridge in a deal believed to be worth an initial £57m.

Sarri has spoken of Jorginho's "technical" attributes following his move, and the 26-year-old feels that he can bring something new to the English game.

"Perhaps my style of play is not something that is seen in England," Jorginho told the club's official website.

"I really hope that it is a good fit for the game over here and I will certainly be doing everything I can to make sure it works out.

"Since I was little I was someone who always enjoyed challenges and for me this is just a huge challenge, professionally and personally, and it really inspires me, this opportunity to really have an experience, and I am really excited about that opportunity."

Jorginho has made 160 appearances for Napoli, scoring six times and registering 14 assists, and has also been capped eight times for the Azzurri.
