Azzurri CT Antonio Conte will name his squad to face Spain and Germany today, and the Brazilian-born Partenopei star is expected to be named.

Jorginho’s agent says the Napoli midfielder’s call-up to the Italy squad “is not yet official”.
Azzurri CT Antonio Conte will name his squad to face Spain and Germany today, and the Brazilian-born Partenopei star is expected to be named.
“Jorginho in the national team with Italy is not yet official,” Joao Santos said on Radio Crc.
“We’re waiting for confirmation this evening. My client has three goals for the season: reach 30 appearances with Napoli, get a call from Conte for the national team and win the Scudetto.
“He’ll probably achieve the first goal on Sunday, tonight for the second and the third will have to wait until May.
Santos was then asked if there is any possibility of his client moving elsewhere in the summer.
“Football is a business, our expectation is to stay five years with Napoli [his contract] and we’ll work to give our best for this team.
“It was in England that I was first asked about Jorginho, but now everyone knows him and it’s obvious that a lot of teams are following him.
“Then if his international call-up is confirmed it would only raise his profile further.
“Newcastle United? No, [Rafa] Benitez has gone there. They probably need a player like him, but we haven’t talked.
“Real Madrid and Arsenal know Jorginho, if they came forward with an official offer we’d talk but at the moment all I can say is that Jorginho has a five-year contract with Napoli and wants to play for them in the Champions League next year.”
