Manchester City are in talks with Napoli for Jorginho.
The Sun says City are “close" to wrapping up a deal for Jorginho.
The midfielder is said to prefer a move to the Etihad over rivals Manchester United who were also monitoring his situation.
Spanish journalist Jose Alvarez Haya claims the Premier League champions are in advanced talks to land the 26-year-old this summer.
Jorginho's agent, Joao Santos met with City's director of football, Txiki Begiristain, last week to hammer out the finer details of the switch.
The Brazilian-born Italian international moved to Naples from Verona for £8.5million four years ago.
