Premier League 2018/19: Best transfers of the summer so far

#5 Jorginho to Chelsea- £57.4 Million

Jorginho will have a big part to play for Chelsea this season

With the signing of former Napoli metronome Jorginho, Chelsea has a player who has been consistently finishing in the upper echelons of passing accuracy and passes completed for the past couple of seasons in all of Europe.

Though the real value of Chelsea's new signing depends heavily on the uncertain futures of Hazard, Willian and Kante. Under the tutelage of the same manager that guided him to success in Naples, the Italian international will be trusted to impose a similar dominance on the ball which made him a top target for Pep Guardiola at Man City.

Two goals and four assists in Serie A are by no means an accurate representation of the midfielder's talents.

With an expertise in playing between the lines and setting teammates off from deep, this new addition will surely offer the likes of Hazard and Willian more opportunity to do what they do best, and with the ball-winning capabilities of N'Golo Kante as a potential midfield partner for the Italian, we could very well see a near perfect midfield for the Blues next season, with Kante's undying tenacity the perfect partner for Jorginho's guile when given time to look forward and pick a pass.

KEY STAT: Jorginho made 3197 passes for Napoli in the 2017/18 season, the most by any player in Europe's top five leagues.
