Manchester City are close to completing the signing of Jorginho after agreeing an initial fee of €49m (£43m) with Napoli for the Italy midfielder.

After weeks of negotiations with their Napoli counterparts over the Brazil-born 26-year-old City finally made a breakthrough this week and are now hopeful of finalising the deal in the next few days. Reports in Italy claimed Jorginho and his agent arrived in London on Wednesday, with further meetings scheduled to discuss bonuses, which could total up to £5m. He is expected to sign a five-year deal at the Etihad Stadium and become City’s first signing of the summer.

Having identified Jorginho as his preferred midfield target to replace the departed Yaya Touré, Pep Guardiola will be delighted to get his man despite the protracted negotiations with Napoli. He moved to Italy as a teenager and has made more than 130 appearances for Napoli since his move from Verona in 2014. He has now made eight international appearances for Italy after making his debut in 2016. Napoli have already acted to replace him, with Fabián Ruiz set to join from Real Betis for €30m.

City also remain hopeful of completing a deal for Leicester’s Riyad Mahrez after their failed move for him in January. Negotiations are continuing, although Leicester’s £20m purchase of James Maddison from Norwich could smooth the way for the Algeria international’s departure.

Can I assume Newcastle just aren’t signing anyone?

Dubravka was a done deal weeks ago. Kenedy is stuck until the Chelsea managerial situation is resolved. Ronaldo and Messi will be finalised after the World Cup.

West Ham are interested in signing Jack Wilshere. Never has a player fit a club so well.

Bantz in the treatment room with Andy Carroll is going to be insane next season!

Southampton are expected to complete the signing of Stuart Armstrong in the next 24 hours – for a fee which we understand to be £7m rising to £8m with add-ons. The central midfielder had his medical on the south coast yesterday, and would become Mark Hughes’ first signing at St Mary’s

Real Sociedad have edged closer to signing Mikel Merino after the Newcastle midfielder said yes to a move to the Basque club, reports AS. La Real were in advanced talks with Newcastle last week over a €12m deal and were only lacking the player’s consent to the move. The 22-year-old is open to a transfer to the LaLiga club and is expected to sign a five-year deal with a €40m buyout clause.
