- Napoli's Jorginho has attracted interest from Manchester United and City
- However, Jorginho's agent has admitted his player is 'happy' at Napoli

Jorginho's agent has joked that his player should turn down a move to Manchester because it 'rains too often'.
Recent reports suggest that Jorginho's agent held talks with Manchester United, while it is also understood that neighbours City are interested in the Napoli star.
United are currently looking for a long-term replacement for English midfielder Michael Carrick, who is expected to retire at the end of the season.

But since these reports surfaced, Joao Santos has admitted that his player is 'happy' at Napoli, before claiming it rains too much in Manchester.
‘From June he’ll have two years on his contract and maybe we’ll start discussing it then, it’s pointless messing with his head,’ he added.
‘The contract isn’t expiring any time soon, there’s time. He’s happy in Naples, Jorginho is happy and the city is very beautiful.

‘Manchester United and Manchester City? When you’re playing for the Serie A leaders it’s only logical that important teams will ask for updates: for example on the length of the contract.
‘I’m glad to come here [to Naples] too, it’s a very Brazilian climate. In Manchester it rains too often!’
Jorginho has scored three goals and created three assists in all competitions for Napoli so far this season.
