Jorginho is set to feature at the Club World Cup this month after signing with a new club following his release by Arsenal.
The 33-year-old was one of multiple first-team departures on Arsenal's retained list, with the likes of Kieran Tierney and Neto also listed.
On Friday Arsenal announced that Jorginho's contract had been terminated by mutual consent effective immediately.
The move marked the end of a two-and-a-half year spell in north London for the Brazilian-born former Italy international that saw him make 79 appearances in all competitions, scoring two goals.
However, while many of his contemporaries face a summer of uncertainty as they embark on the hunt to find a new club Jorginho's next move has already been announced.
On Friday Brazilian club Flamengo revealed that they had signed the midfielder on a three-year deal.
'It was with my feet that I wrote my story around the world, in every corner, a chapter and in every step, achievements,' Jorginho wrote on social media following the announcement.
'I won titles, lived great moments, but deep down, football always spoke to me in one language: the language of the heart. I spent years away from my origins, but this game, which took me to distant destinations, also brought me back.
'And today, such a special day, I feel happy and motivated, with the will of a boy full of dreams and one certainty: the best is yet to come.
'I am grateful for the opportunity and I am very excited to wear the jersey and play in a packed Maraca.'
The club, managed by former Chelsea and Atletico Madrid full-back Filipe Luis, currently sit top of the Brasileiro Serie A with just one defeat from their opening 11 games.
Flamengo have been placed in Group D for the revamped Club World Cup that is set to get underway in the United States later this month.
The 16 club will first take on Tunisian side ES Tunis on the 16 June at the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
Four days later Jorginho will face his former club Chelsea before rounding out their group stage campaign against MLS side Los Angeles FC on June 24.
