According to Fabrizio Romano, Arsenal star Jorginho is set to join Flamengo.
Jorginho set to join Flamengo on free transfer, here we go!
Plan confirmed since January and deal set to be sealed for the midfielder who’s leaving Arsenal in June.
Three year deal until 2028 at Flamengo verbally agreed, as @venecasagrande reports. Jorginho said yes.
The Brazilian club have made no secret of their desire to sign the 33-year old, having made an approach in December, but they are now close to agreement on a free transfer.
Jorginho has been recovering from a punctured lung after being injured against Brentford last month.
Though born in Brazil, Jorginho moved to Italy as a teenager and has been capped 57 times by the Azzurri.
He joined Arsenal from Chelsea for £12million in 2023.
Arsenal are looking to strengthen their midfield and are in advanced talks to sign Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad for £60m this summer.
They have opened talks over a new deal for Thomas Partey.
Jorginho has featured 26 times in all competitions this season, scoring once, and has made 78 appearances in total since arriving from Stamford Bridge.
Earlier this season, Mikel Arteta lavished praise on the veteran for helping to 'make others better' and being ready to play when called upon.
'That is his quality,' Arteta said. 'I always mention his biggest quality is his capacity to make others better. Last season was the same.
'At the start there was less games, we don't play that many midweek matches and he had less minutes.
'But I told him to be ready because there is going to be a time, and it is not going to be in one week you have to play, you are going to play now or tomorrow.
'The way he prepares is top so when he needs to play he is ready.'

Three years deal at the age of 33years congs bro
Brother at Flamengo I’m not a fan, but the midfield is absolute fire. My God it’s going to be a slaughter house. Most of the midfielders are experienced 25-30’s and they are still on Fire winning games left right and centre. They have Pedro in attack.. Age is just a number at Flamengo.. Results are in the trophy cabinet.
