After speaking with the player, it is said that Arsenal is prepared to respond to Galatasaray’s interest in midfielder Jorginho. However, it has been made plain that Arsenal will not consider any bids for Jorginho, despite the Turkish team’s interest. The Italian international is reportedly being targeted by the Super Lig club ahead of the Turkish transfer window closing on Friday, September 13.
Even though the Premier League transfer window ended on August 30, major signings are still being finalized before deadlines in a number of leagues outside of England, including Turkey. Galatasaray appears to have turned its attention to Jorginho after previously being linked to moves for other Premier League midfielders, including Casemiro of Manchester United and Scott McTominay.
Arsenal has no plans to part ways with the 32-year-old, who has established himself as a vital member of Mikel Arteta’s team, according to talkSPORT. After joining the Gunners in 2023, Jorginho recently agreed to a short-term contract extension in May 2024.
Jorginho has made 52 appearances in all competitions since his arrival, winning over many supporters who had their doubts about his Chelsea signing at first. He has a prominent role at the club thanks to his leadership and distinctive playing style; Arteta has praised his impact both on and off the field.
Arteta remarked following the contract extension, “We’re delighted that Jorgi has signed a new contract with us.” “Jorgi is a vital member of our team, serving as an inspiration to others with his exceptional leadership abilities and special playing style that makes everyone around him better.”
Jorginho acknowledged that he was happy to be staying in North London and that it was not difficult for him to decide to stay on at Arsenal.
To be honest, there wasn’t much to talk about, according to Jorginho. “It means a lot to me that the club values and wants me to stay longer. I feel really good here.” I think I can do more for the team, and I’m determined to give it everything I’ve got in return for all of the love and support I’ve gotten.”
