The agent of Jorginho insists his priority is a new deal with Chelsea.

Joao Santos, who is working to resolve his client's future as he is into the final year of his current deal at Stamford Bridge.

Santos was spotted in Barcelona last week.

Jorginho's agent has suggested talks with Barca have taken place, telling TuttoMercatoWeb: “I work in football, I have been to Barcelona, Madrid and Valencia, but also in other parts such as Lyon."

Pressed if he spoke to Barca about Jorginho, Santos said: “I'm Jorginho's agent, I may have talked about him but also about others…"

Santos did add, however, that right now the 30-year-old midfielder's current priority is to earn a new deal at Chelsea.

“We are due [to expire] in June," he said. “We prioritise Chelsea and we are moving towards it.

“Another priority for Jorginho is to do well with the national team."
