Chelseaโ€™s Jorginho tips Milan midfielder to succeed him

Chelsea midfielder and UEFA Menโ€™s Player of the Year 2021 Jorginho has tipped Sandro Tonali to succeed him the future.

Jorginho was talking to the press ahead of Italyโ€™s upcoming friendlies during the international break. He was asked a host of things and he was asked to talk about his future successor. The Chelsea star talked about Tonali.

He said: โ€œLet me think โ€“ Tonali. Now everyone plays in a two in midfield, I realise itโ€™s not easy. Todayโ€™s kids grow up playing practically only two in midfield, then itโ€™s normal to struggle when you get older.โ€

Tonali recently scored a delightful free-kick from Milan against Cagliari, so perhaps Jorginhoโ€™s praise comes at the right time.
