Arsenal star Jorginho's agent admits that his client is not engaging in new contract discussions at present.

The Italian is out of favor at the North London club under manager Mikel Arteta this season.

Despite the veteran pass master only playing a peripheral role so far this term, his agent Joao Santos believes Jorginho wants to remain a Gunner.

He told TUTTOmercatoWEB: "Everything is at a standstill. We'll think about it after February. However, the priority remains Arsenal."

Arsenal have the likes of Declan Rice and Thomas Partey who play in Jorginho's position.

He also faces competition from Mo Elneny and Kai Havertz, who can also play central midfield.
