Agent: Edu key to Jorginho leaving Chelsea for Arsenal

The agent of Jorginho has explained his decision to leave Chelsea for Arsenal.

Jorginho swapped west London for the capital's north with a stunning late switch on deadline day in January.

Jorginho's agent Joao Santos said: “Two days before the transfer market closed, we saw that Chelsea worked to sign Enzo Fernandez.

"Edu Gaspar wanted the boy and so we made it happen. A new project - he did very well at Chelsea, winning a lot as a team and personally.

“[Interest from Italy?] Not for January. We had talked to some teams for July."
