Arsenal midfielder Jorginho will not be joining Turkish side Fenerbahce, according to his agent Joao Santos.
The Turkish transfer window still has 10 days left, and Fenerbahce have been linked with a move for the Gunners midfielder. The 31-year-old has played just 17 minutes worth of action this season in three games.
However, Santos has ruled out Jorginho's move to the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium for his client Jorginho, telling Tuttomercatoweb:
“Jorginho is focused on Arsenal, on the Premier League and the Champions League. He will not go to Fenerbahce.”
Reports have claimed that Fenerbahce were weighing up a bid for the Italy international. Ismail Kartal has already targeted the Premier League to bolster his midfield this summer, signing Fred from Manchester United.
However, Jorginho looks set to continue at Arsenal, where he's vying for a place in Mikel Arteta's starting lineup. His chances of playing more of a prominent role have improved, as Thomas Partey is set for a spell on the sidelines.
The Italian joined the Gunners from Chelsea in January for £12 million and has a year left on his contract, with the option of a further year. Arteta will want his side to have strength in depth as they look to battle for the title once again.
Jorginho has made 19 appearances across competitions since joining Arsenal, providing one assist. He won the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League and FIFA Club World Cup during his time at Stamford Bridge and boasts plenty of experience.
Jorginho reacts to Arsenal's dramatic 3-1 win against Manchester United
Jorginho only played just one minute in the Gunners' come-from-behind 3-1 win over Manchester United on Sunday (September 3). However, the Italian was enthused by the win that featured late goals from Declan Rice and Gabriel Jesus to secure all three points.
The Italian midfielder took to Instagram in reaction to the stunning win for Arsenal against Erik ten Hag's Red Devils:
"What a win … and that’s why we love football."
Marcus Rashford had given United the lead in the 27th minute with an impressive strike. However, Martin Odegaard quickly put the hosts at the Emirates back on level terms 35 seconds later.
Rice then pounced in the 90+6th minute to score his first goal for the club before Jesus came off the bench to wrap up the win five minutes later. The north Londoners head into the international break in fifth place in the league.
