Chelsea midfielder Jorginho's future is in the hands of the Blues, but his agent insists that an exit cannot be ruled out.

Jorginho's agent Joao Santos has suggested that the Chelsea midfielder could leave Stamford Bridge this summer if the right offer is made.

The Italy international finished last season as the Blues' top scorer in the Premier League, albeit all seven of his goals came from the penalty spot.

Former Napoli ace Jorginho carried that form into Euro 2020, playing in every game for the Azzurri en route to winning the competition.

Speculation persists over the 29-year-old's future, with Juventus known to be interested, and Santos has admitted that a transfer cannot be ruled out.

"I confirm it, these interests have arrived," he told Tuttomercato. "Of course, at 29 he can do very well in all the top European clubs and many are interested in him."

However, Jorginho still has two years to run on his Chelsea contract, and Santos added: "It's all in the hands of the club.

"There is the World Club Championship, there is the European Super Cup. For a footballer these are important goals.

"But, the transfer market is always the transfer market and if a major club comes forward seriously with Chelsea then we will evaluate. At the moment, Jorginho will play it at Chelsea next season."

Jorginho has appeared 141 times for Chelsea since joining from Napoli in 2018.
