Chelsea midfielder, Jorginho, has been named the UEFA Player
of the Year.
This was confirmed on Thursday shortly after the draw for
the Champions League group stage.
Jorginho wins the award ahead of teammate N’Golo Kante and
Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne.
The three midfielders were the final three on the shortlist
for the prize.
Jorginho, 29, enjoyed a brilliant campaign in Europe last
season as Chelsea won the Champions League.
His year got even better as he won the European
Championships with Italy after playing in every match.
Jorginho is now favourite to win this year’s Ballon d’Or
prize, as reward for his sublime performances over the past 12 months, along
with PSG’s Lionel Messi.
