Jorginho's agent backs Arsenal star to continue taking penalties for Italy despite four consecutive misses - and makes bizarre claim 'only one in TEN' will be scored in a decade's time!

Jorginho's agent wants him to continue taking penalties for Italy despite his recent spot-kick malaise as he made a bizarre claim that only one in 10 spot-kicks will be scored in a decade's time.

The Arsenal midfielder missed his fourth consecutive penalty with the Azzurri on Friday night in their 5-2 win over North Macedonia and has drawn criticism from Italian football legends.

Beppe Bergomi, a 1982 World Cup winner, urged Jorginho to 'bow down' and said 'enough is enough' after he eclipsed Alessandro 'Spillo' Altobelli's unwanted record, who missed three straight spot-kicks.
