Former Chelsea defensive midfielder who currently plays for Arsenal, Jorginho has revealed that he was contacted before Napoli signed Nigerian striker, Victor Osimhen.
He said that Napoli sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli spoke to him on the phone before signing Victor Osimhen.
Recall that Osimhen joined the Serie A side from Lille in the summer of 2020.
The Nigerian striker has gone on to establish himself as one of the best strikers in the world.
“They are doing incredible things, honestly, I didn’t know the guy playing on the wing [ Kvaratskhelia],” Jorginho told DAZN.
“I knew Osimhen. I had played against him in the Champions League and he had given a hard time to our defenders.
“Giuntoli called me before signing him and I told him to sign him straight away, he is very promising and is doing really well. They [Osimhen and Kvara] are flying and everything is going well. There is winning energy.”
