Chelsea's talented midfielder Jorginho has been talking about a return to Napoli only months after he left there.
The 26-year-old, who was linked with Manchester City for much of the summer before eventually joining his old coach Maurizio Sarri on a five-year contract, clearly has a lot of love for Naples.
According to Football Italia, he said that Napoli was a "magnificent" club and says he wants to go back to Italy one day.
Jorginho said: "There were various things behind my departure from Napoli. The will of just one party is not enough. Serie A will always be one of the best leagues in the world. I hope to go back one day.
"There's a difference in tempo and physicality between English and Italian football. However, you can't not miss a magnificent place such as Napoli.
“Serie A is still a beautiful and exciting league though, one that is followed all over the world. Cristiano Ronaldo’s arrival has been even more beneficial, and I hope I can go back one day.”
“As for Naples, a place like that is beautiful. I miss the sun, the food, my friends and the warmth of the people. I spent some wonderful years at Napoli and I’ll always be in love with that team.”
To understand the difference with the infrastructure in England you have to experience it. At Cobham, we have 38 pitches. Enough said."
When asked about life with his old boss, Jorginho said: "Sarri is enjoying his adventure in England but he's not changing much, he's sticking to his habits."
Jorginho spent four years at Napoli and scored four goals last term as the club pushed Juventus all the way for the Serie A title.
Jorginho's 173 attempted passes was the second-highest figure in Premier League history! 🔢👏
