Arsenal to consider approach for Chelsea midfielder Jorginho?

Chelsea midfielder Jorginho has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Arsenal.

The Gunners are said to be attempting to sign Atletico Madrid's Thomas Partey and Lyon's Houssem Aouar before the end of the summer window.

However, with both deals bringing their own complications, it appears that the North Londoners are prepared to consider alternatives.

According to Sky Sports News, Arsenal have identified Jorginho as a fresh option as they bid to strengthen their midfield.

While the Italy international has started the season in the Chelsea starting lineup, Blues officials could be happy to cash in on the player for the right price.

The 28-year-old still has three years remaining on his contract at Stamford Bridge.
