Chelsea midfielder Jorginho would have improved Tottenham Hotspur, suggests Ian Wright.

Arsenal legend Ian Wright suggested on The Monday Night Club show on BBC Radio 5 live on Monday evening (8:59pm, August 13, 2018) that Tottenham Hotspur should have tried to sign Jorginho before the midfielder moved to Chelsea from Napoli.

Chelsea signed Jorginho from Napoli in the summer transfer window for a fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £50 million.

According to BBC Sport, Manchester City, who won the Premier League title last season, were also interested in securing the services of the 26-year-old Italy international this summer.

Former Arsenal striker Wright has suggested that Jorginho would have improved Tottenham.

Wright said on The Monday Night Club show on BBC Radio 5 live on Monday evening (8:59pm, August 13, 2018): “Chelsea have gone and got Jorginho. He is going to improve Tottenham. Why aren’t they going in for these players as well?”

Improving Tottenham Hotspur

Jorginho is one of the best midfielders in Europe, and his performances for Napoli in Serie A and Champions League over the years underline his obvious quality.

The Italy international is a very good midfielder who is going to make Chelsea a better team as the season progresses.

While the former Chievo star would have improved Tottenham, one suspects that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy would not have paid the £50m that Chelsea reportedly had to cough up for the 26-year-old.
