The race for the Ballon d’Or is heating up at the moment, with football’s elite superstars eyeing the coveted prize. Chelsea star Jorginho is one of the favorites to claim the accolade this year. Giorgio Chiellini, Jorginho’s national team colleague, has tipped him to win the tournament ahead of Lionel Messi and Robert Lewandowski.
“I truly hope he will be able to win it, because he’s a good friend of mine. And it would also be an award that I would also feel is mine, being an Italian of course, and as a player involved in a win and emotions that will always be in our hearts. “I’ve always thought Jorginho was a capable player. I’ve been able to realize just how good he is and what a top player he is since [Roberto] Mancini arrived and was able to give him consistency. “He may not have the best physical attributes, but the real difference is in his head and mentality,” Chiellini said (via talkSPORT). “#Jorginho?” says #Chiellini. I sincerely hope he can win the Ballon d’Or because he is a good friend of mine. I’ve always thought #Jorginho was a good player who deserved to be recognized”. #Chiellini: “#Jorginho?.”

The Juventus captain was also pleased to see Jorginho flourish under other Chelsea managers, following initial speculation that he could only impress under Maurizio Sarri.
“I was overjoyed because many people said he could only play with Sarri, but instead two other coaches – as well as the Italian national team – arrived at Chelsea,” Chiellini continued. “So he’s a regular player wherever he goes, wherever he plays.” I’m ecstatic for him, and he truly deserves to win that prize. He went on to say, “I hope he gets the Ballon d’Or.” JORGINHO IS UNSTOPPABLE THIS YEAR
