Chelsea ace Jorginho happy mocking Ferdinand after criticism re-emerges online

Chelsea ace Jorginho has enjoyed mocking pundit Rio Ferdinand for comments made about the Euro 2020 winner two years ago.

The Italy midfielder finished last season European champion for club and country and was named UEFA Player of the Year.

Chelsea fan account 'everything.blues_' posted a video on social media showing Ferdinand slating Jorginho before the Italian star is seen collecting his UEFA Player of the Year award.

In the clip taken from two years ago, Ferdinand said of Jorginho: "He gets no assists, he's not a great defender, once a game gets like this against the big teams he gets overrun in midfield and he can't run."

Jorginho was happy to share the video on his Instagram story.
