Jorginho is but I think he is not in mid 20s anymore.
Pogba - Im definitely a fan but even I have reservations regarding him. Its not a blind love. Sometimes when he plays you want to kick his ass so he will work harder and this is a huge no no. Fortunately for him he got some other mad skills and his previous tenure + his France form kind of ease it up.
He's 30-31 but I still wouldn't mind him to teach Rovella a thing or two while immediately being a quality upgrade.

Sure about Pogba but finding the right position for him and handing him more attacking freedom should give him more motivation.

I`d take him too since we cant have any better or equal for a low sum. Meanwhile Rovella will grow - Sounds perfect.
As for his age - I was referring to the fact he said someone in his mid 20s

The boss of our mid doesn't hve to be in mid 20's. Difficult to find and even if there's any he would cost massive transfer fees. Which is i don't think we can afford since we need to patch the hole dybala left.
I wasn't really sold on pogba or jorginho but i think i am okay with one of them if the money can go for a winger and a left back.

Logic wise Jorginho and Pogba could come with an additional winger and maybe also a LB BUT If we do go for Salah which currently sounds unrealistic you can forget about a LB
I`d take it but like I said very unrealistic

Salah is too unrealistic. I've never even considered him. But I rather get one of pogba or jorginho and spend some money on LB and winger. Maybe younger and promising talent.
Or can we get Jose luis Gaya with reasonable price? His contract expired june 2023

[Gazzetta] Jorginho wants to return to Italy. His agent can't say any more. In fact, he even sends mixed signals. But the reality is that the midfielder has been close to Juve for weeks now. There is talk of a 4 year contract of 6m euros.

[J Santos] (Jorginho agent): “Our priority is the contract extension with Chelsea. If Blues don’t offer the renewal, Jorgi’s first choice will be the return to Serie A. Juventus? The most important clubs are interested in him and would be taken into consideration...”

[Sky] Juventus have made new contacts with Mino Raiola for Paul Pogba.

"In the last hours, I received some confirmation on Jorginho. Juventus are looking for a regista to put in front of the defense. The contacts with the agent of the Italo-brazilian are advanced. Still to see what the situation of Chelsea will be, but the player seems to be the chosen one for the bianconero midfield."

Ugh. Underwhelming if that's the only reinforcement we're getting for midfield. Fuck this obsession with a regista.
Well, your complaints are valid, to some extent only, just compare this:
Rabiot - Arthur - Locatelli

with this:
Rabiot - Jorginho - Locatelli

The second is CLEARLY better. Sure, we have to dump useless Rabiot for someone else, totally. Jorginho himself though, makes a lot of sense, he basically frees up Locatelli to play as B2B.

Then, we spend some cash for that LCM and suddenly the midfield looks much better.

Switch Rabiot for Zakaria and we have a very good midfield. Don't know what will happen with Pogba yet either.
