Jorginho has spoken to his critics as he prepares for another season at Chelsea.

The Italian midfielder arrived at the club in 2018, with Champions League, Europa League and Super Cup titles to his name since his arrival.

He also enjoyed a stellar Euro 2020, in which he helped guide his country to victory with a penalty shootout victory in the final against England.

In an interview with The Players’ Tribune, Jorginho opened up about his time with the Blues so far.

What Jorginho said

Speaking of his initial arrival, he said: “We all remember what they said, don’t we? I was too slow. I was too weak. I was Sarri’s son. Man, that made me so angry.

“But listen, they underestimated me.”

Despite an impressive first season at Chelsea, the Italy international still had doubts, but he wanted to prove them wrong.

He said: “I just used the reviews for fuel. I thought, these people are going to be embarrassed.”

Jorginho now has four European winner’s medals for club and country in his hands, including three in the past four months.

His success has enabled him to respond to any criticism he may have left, in which he states: “And now I’m sitting here with a Europa League title and a Champions League title. So to all the critics , I just want to say one thing.

“Thank you. Really, thank you all.”
