Jorginho

Italy’s Sky Sports has reported linked Arsenal with a move for Hellas Verona’s Brazilian-born midfielder Jorginho.

Jorginho has been attracting rave reviews this season in Serie B.

The 21-year-old, who stands at 1.80 meters while commanding a central midfield role in the Verona XI, has reportedly got the likes of Lazio, AC Milan, Napoli and Fiorentina all vying for his signature. Now, so says the rumour mill, Arsène Wenger is also taking a look at the youngster.

There are plenty of factors to dismiss the transfer report as fanciful at best.

Few concrete sources can be unearthed to offer credence to the Sky Sports Italia story, while the main sense that there may be some truth to this piece of gossip stems for the circumstantial evidence that Arsène Wenger likes to find diamonds in the rough who he can then polish up into star performers.

Yet with Arsenal light in midfield with Mikel Arteta, Abou Diaby and Francis Coquelin all missing from the first team at the moment, the Gunners arguably do need extra midfield bodies for second half of the campaign.

The player has an Italian passport and the asking price is 7 Million Euros.

There are a few Italian sites reporting the rumor but they are probably not the most reliable:

Super quality

WOW! The "exceptional quality" that Wenger was talking about was a completely unknown mediocre midfielder from Serie B. Arsène Wenger is ****** clueless!

Why do you think this is actually going to happen as opposed to the other rumours?

Or, the rumour has no substance to it and we should not expend any emotional energy on it. There are always so many rumours flying around here that after a while you get inured to things. Having said that, one day we could again land a diamond in the rough but Wenger makes things difficult by talking about "Super Quality" and all his other patented pet phrases.

The best Jorge you can find.

Will take anything atm, our squad depth is pathetic.

the missing puzzle piece, finally
