Manchester United reportedly decide to join Liverpool in the race to sign Napoli midfielder Jorginho.

Manchester United have reportedly identified Napoli midfielder Jorginho as a possible target for the summer transfer window.

Manager Jose Mourinho is said to be keen for a reshuffle in the middle of the pitch, with Ander Herrera and Marouane Fellaini both being linked with a departure from Old Trafford and Michael Carrick expected to retire from professional football.

Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves is one of the names to have been suggested for a switch to the North-West of England but according to the Daily Star, United are keeping their options open.

Jorginho has emerged as a key player for the Italian outfit - who lead the Serie A table - and the 26-year-old has made a total of 144 appearances in all competitions since moving to Naples in 2014.

The report suggests that Liverpool are also considering an approach for the Italian international, who still has just under two-and-a-half years remaining on his contract.
