Jorginho is off to a great start in the Premier League

Former Napoli midfielder, Jorginho was all set to join Manchester City in the Premier League this summer after Pep Guardiola made public his interest in the player. Even though the Italian eventually moved to the English top flight, his proposed move to the Etihad Stadium never materialized as the player decided to link up with his old manager, Maurizio Sarri at Chelsea instead.

Resuming his role as the fulcrum of Sarri's midfield, Jorginho has had a great start to his career in the Premier League. He has been playing at an incredible level, controlling play from the middle of the pitch and helping his teammates to adapt to the manager's system.

Such is the impact of the player that Chelsea have found it easier to play an attractive brand of football, winning all their 3 matches in the competition so far. With that kind of an influence, there is no doubt the 26-year-old will run riot in the English top flight during the campaign.
