Napoli midfielder Jorginho's agent has confirmed that there are 'no chances anymore' for an Azzurri call-up.

The midfielder's exclusion, while not official yet, caused a stir among fans, who believe Italy's midfield cannot afford to leave the oriundo at home.

Though not confirmed by the federation, the report now appears to be definitive, as the player's agent confirmed it himself.

“There are no more chances for Jorginho to be called at the Euros,” said his agent Joao Santo to Radio CRC. “Let's accept that and work for Napoli.

“I heard the lad and he's not worried, because Conte chose to bring to the Euros players with greater experience in that role, such as [Daniele] De Rossi and Thiago Motta.

“Now comes the Champions League, which Jorginho will play with Napoli, then we'll see. With Euro 2016 we close a cycle. There will be another.

“If the next Coach is [Giampiero] Ventura, then Jorginho may find greater opportunities within a 4-3-3, but the lad knows that being called up for Italy and playing two friendlies was something important.

“I always had faith in Jorginho's potential and being polemical doesn't help anyone. This year he gave it his all and that's why he's feeling happy with himself. In life you've got to look forwards.”
