Jorginho was nominated for the Ballon d'Or and is considered one of the frontrunners after winning 3 European trophies over the summer.
“It’s, if I had to say a word, unreal,” Jorginho told The Telegraph of the recognition for his individual performance.
“My dream was just to be a professional footballer and then things started to happen and I kept believing and working really hard.
“It’s hard to keep it [thoughts about the Ballon d’Or] out because there’s a lot going on about it and a lot of people saying these things, which I appreciate a lot.
"But I try to not think that much because then I lose focus on other important things we are fighting for. I just try to wait and see what’s going to happen.”
Jorginho was again masterful against Malmo in the Champions League and continues to impress whenever he appears for the Blues.
