With Jorginho's contract expiring at the end of the current campaign, Napoli rekindles their interest in a return transfer for the Chelsea star.

Jorginho, a midfielder currently playing for Chelsea, is a fresh target for Napoli

Jorginho, a midfielder for Chelsea, is still without a contract, which has renewed Napoli's interest in him. The 31-year-old moved to the Blues from Napoli in 2018 and has been linked with a move back to the Italian team as his deal with Chelsea is about to expire. The summer will mark the end of Jorginho's contract with the Premier League's powerhouses, and his agency has already started looking for alternatives.

Jorginho prefers to relocate back to Italy since it is where he began his career and will spend the rest of his life. However, Jorginho's costly salaries at Chelsea might put a wrench in the plans due to Napoli's financial difficulties. In the event that Chelsea leaves, Jorginho would want to return to Napoli, but there are still a few other options for the midfielder to return to Italy. The Italian midfielder's longtime admirer Maurizio Sarri, who joined Chelsea on the same day as him, would be happy to see the 31-year-old join Lazio. Although the 31-year-old has also expressed interest in Newcastle and Barcelona, Napoli continues to hold the top spot.

A 27-year-old midfielder with Chelsea ties may be available for a free move

Adrien Rabiot, a target for Chelsea, may leave Juventus for free. Highly regarded midfielder Rabiot, 27, has a contract that expires with Juventus at the end of the current campaign. With five goals in 17 games so far this season, he has been a key contributor for the Serie A team, but is his stay in Italy now coming to an end?

Respected writer Fabrizio Romano now claims that there is a "very strong likelihood" that Rabiot leaves Juventus in 2023 on a free transfer. Additionally, he suggests that the France international may play in the Premier League. Some players with exorbitant wages need to be cut. It is very difficult for Juventus to extend Adrien Rabiot's contract, and there is a significant likelihood that he will depart for the Premier League on his own, according to Romano on the House of Champions podcast.

In December, 90min said that Chelsea and Rabiot's agents had been speaking often about the latter's prospective transfer to Stamford Bridge. They said that Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Tottenham are also interested in competing in the Premier League.

Rabiot is a superb center midfielder who can compete at the highest level when he's healthy and on fire. With his tenacity both on and off the ball, the feisty left-footer adds a lot of balance to the center of the park. With major English teams competing to sign him, a free move should make this prospective transfer highly alluring to interested bidders. This year, Chelsea may need to add at least a few new players to their midfield.

What the Chelsea board really thinks about Graham Potter in light of the most recent outcomes

According to reports, the Chelsea board seems unconcerned about recent performances, and Graham Potter is being given more time and room to work with his team. Chelsea is reportedly "relaxed" about their performance on the field since they are adopting a long-term strategy, according to The Independent. It is clarified that the Blues understand the predicament Potter found himself in at Stamford Bridge. The leadership, therefore, places a lot of faith in the 47-year-old head coach to complete a project effectively.

Knowing that his position is not in jeopardy, as it would have been under the previous ownership, should give Potter a great deal of comfort. Despite the board's optimistic outlook, pressure from Chelsea's fans is beginning to mount on the manager. The Blues have lost their previous seven Premier League games, and as a result, they have slipped to 10th place in the standings. When Potter's team hosts Manchester City tonight, things won't get any simpler. By the way, you can view our projected Chelsea lineup to face Man City by clicking here.

The second half of the season will be quite intriguing to watch to see how Chelsea's year develops. Because there are several players in the team who need to be replaced, Potter should be given some leeway. As a result, supporters will be hoping that the club remains highly busy in the transfer market. However, there is unquestionably still enough potential to at the very least secure European football. There is still time to turn things around and return to the top four, but those possibilities are diminishing with each poor performance.
