Jorginho 'agrees five-year City deal'

Napoli midfielder Jorginho has allegedly agreed a five-year deal with Manchester City.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the key details of the contract have been finalised, and the midfielder will join up with his new employers after the World Cup.

The deal, which is thought to be worth €50m (£44m), was allegedly spurred by Jorginho's interest in playing under Pep Guardiola.

The Italian outlet adds that Guardiola is an admirer of the 26-year-old and wants to add the playmaker to the growing list of talent at the club.

Jorginho made 35 appearances for Napoli this season, scoring three times.
