Jorginho stated that he is not thinking about the transfer market, as he is occupied with the Italian national team. It was inevitable that top European club would be interested in the midfielder after his strong season at Napoli. Manchester City stands out above the rest. Guardiola is thinking about adding quality to his midfield and Jorginho fits the profile. The English club is ready to present an offer just above 45 million euros (46 or 47), but Napoli is asking for 50 million euros. The two clubs are continuing to negotiate to find find the right balance that also includes the bonuses. In the potential case that the negotiations end in a positive manner, Jorginho would sign a five year contract worth 4 million euros per year. It is mostly likely that the conclusion to the deal could arrive following Jorginho's commitments with the italian national team.
It would be at this point that Napoli would focus on Fabian Ruiz, who has a buyout clause of 30 million euros. An alternative would be Paredes, as Napoli could keep insisting for him.
