Clean sheets

2.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 65.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.27 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 24.6, Jorginho carries the 62nd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A of 72. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.58 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
