Jorhinho stance on a move to Barcelona from Chelsea confirmed amid contract talk with the Chelsea board.
There were numerous rumors circulating earlier this month that Barcelona was interested in signing Chelsea midfielder Jorginho as a potential Sergio Busquets replacement.
Additionally, there were rumors that when his contract ended the next summer, the Italian international had offered himself to Barcelona as a potential free agent.
However, according to a recent update from Relevo, Barcelona and Jorginho have had absolutely no communication on any potential trade. The midfielder allegedly has his sights set on renewing his contract at Chelsea.

For the past four years, Jorginho has consistently started for Chelsea, and he has been a crucial component of their current success. Additionally, he played a crucial role in helping Italy win the UEFA Euro 2020 championship in England last year.
Being a seasoned player with extensive experience at the top level, it is only logical that he has been connected with Barcelona, who will say farewell to their captain Busquets at the conclusion of the current season when his contract expires.
There doesn’t appear to be any truth to these allegations, according to Relevo, since Jorginho apparently wants to extend his stay at Stamford Bridge and sign a new contract with Chelsea.
For Barcelona, replacing Busquets as the base of their midfield unit, they have closed in on Real Sociedad’s Martin Zubimendi as their top target. The 23-year-old is reportedly admired by manager Xavi Hernandez, who wants him at Camp Nou.
