Deco thinks of Jorginho as Barça's low-cost pivot 24/25

In front of the current economic stage, in which hardly it will be able to fichar players that ronden the 50 million euros, a name that keeps in the diary of the FC Barcelona for the market of summer is Jorginho. The mediocentro of 32 years is a firm alternative to reinforce the role of pivote in a Barça in which Oriol Romeu has not been able to consolidate and where Frenkie of Jong has left some doubts in when to his defensive work.

It is thus that the italo-Brazilian, which has alternated suplencias with titularities this season in the centre of the field of an Arsenal that it is first in the Premier League and advanced to chambers of Champions after 14 years, is followed closely by the sportive direction of Deco, as it informs 'Sport'. More still knowing that it finishes agreement to final of season and still has not opened negotiations to value a possible renewal.

The Barça thinks that can fichar 'free' to another player of first level

It is not a secret that the economic situation of the Barça has done him in the last years have to resort to the market of free players, although no thus it has left of fichar important names in this sector of the market, as it was the case of Christensen and Gündogan, or before the Kun Agüero. But now it would treat of a key operation by the position in the field, further that it would be a solution thinking only in the short term.

The information also signals a recent statement of the agent of the player, Joao Santos, in which it has aimed that although for now the priority of Jorginho goes through to expect a renewal with the Arsenal, "will see if they need him for the next season", ensured the employer. And it is that reason does not be missing him to Saints in front of the presence of pivote as it Crimp and Thomas Partey, taking into account besides that the English every time feels more comfortable playing only in the base and being accompanied by interiors like Odegaard or Fabio Scallop.

An aim that continues repeating

It is worthwhile to remember equally that the name of Jorginho has been related with the Barça from does several seasons. The Catalan club already was near to add him in 2022 and 2023, so much in winter as in summer, but in some moments his index card did not fit in the project and in others the Barça was not had to pay a determinate quantity by his signing in front of the possibility that remained free of Chelsea, something that yes that did the Arsenal does already more than a year.
