Kaio Jorge has found his footing with Frosinone this season, impressing Juventus as they start to plan out his next steps.
The 22-year-old Brazilian forward initially joined the Bianconeri from Santos in the summer of 2021 in a deal worth around €6.8m, a fee reflective of his obvious potential. After a slow start in the youth system, a patellar tendon rupture kept him sidelined for over 18 months, disrupting his development.
Kaio Jorge joined Frosinone on a loan deal with no buy option attached last summer, giving him the chance for regular first team football following his difficult start to life in Italy. He has excelled in recent weeks, scoring three goals across his last six league appearances.
As reported by Daniele Longo of Calciomercato.com, Juventus have been left impressed by Kaio Jorge’s development at Frosinone this season and are keeping a close eye on his work in the second half of this campaign.
The 22-year-old’s contract expires with the Old Lady in June 2026, so the club are planning to offer him a new deal before sending him out on loan again in the summer, possibly at Frosinone again.
