Why Arsenal are chasing a Deadline Day deal for Jorginho
"People may be surprised, when you look at the profile of players Arsenal had been signing but Mikel Arteta had made the point on the day they signed Leandro Trossard that they need players who are fit and ready to go straight off in the Premier League. That's what Jorginho is.
"Arsenal are short in the midfield area. Mohamed Elneny is out and there was no commitment from Arteta when he might be back. We know Thomas Partey picked up that injury in the cup and he's gone for an MRI on his ribs. So the squad is looking thin there.
"Europe is about to start and they'll be going Thursday-Sunday-Thursday-Sunday and they want somebody else in.
"Moises Caicedo is the man who's been attracting a lot of attention from Chelsea and Arsenal, who have made two bids. Brighton are saying he's not for sale.
"Had Arsenal not been in this position in the league, chasing their first title in almost two decades, would Arsenal and Arteta move in this way? But it makes it an interesting Deadline Day."

Mourinho labels Osimhen a 'diver'
Jose Mourinho has labelled Manchester United target Victor Osimhen a 'diver'.
The Red Devils have been linked with an eye-watering £150million move for the powerful Napoli striker.
The Nigerian scored a brilliant goal in a 2-1 Serie A win against Mourinho's Roma yesterday.
Afterwards, ex-United boss Mourinho said: "If Victor changes then, OK, I’d buy him if I was at a club with a lot of money.
"However, if he does go to England one day, he needs to change, because in Italy they put up with this sort of behaviour.
"But in the Premier League, they’d come down hard on him."
