Arsenal signed Jorginho less than 48 hours before the deadline day.
The Italian midfielder left Chelsea to join rivals in the January transfer window in a deal worth €13.5m.
He signed a contract with the North London side until the summer of 2024.
The midfielder lost his spot in the Blues squad as he was longer a part of Graham Potter’s plans.
He was one of the most surprising transfers in the last transfer window and could play an important role in Arsenal’s title-chasing campaign.
Jorginho made an instant impact since his arrival at the Emirates and was instrumental in Arsenal’s 4-2 win over Aston Villa over the weekend.
Pundit Garth Crooks said: “I wasn’t entirely sure about the merits of his signing. Arsenal’s Thomas Partey and Granit Xhaka are having a good season and Jorginho seemed to have lost whatever it was he had at Chelsea. However, I saw signs against Manchester City in midweek that he was getting the taste for the big games again.
“His performance against Aston Villa was biting, while his style of play complements the artistry of Martin Odegaard. The Italy international’s 93rd-minute strike may have gone down as an own goal, but he won’t give a monkey’s about that.”
