“He is happy to be among the preliminary squad for the training camp,” agent Joao Santos told Radio Crc.

“From tomorrow he’ll be training with the side and we hope he can convince Conte to bring him to the Euros in France.

“Could he replace Verratti? It depends on the characteristics that Conte is looking for. If he wants someone with quality and dynamism, then he’ll bring Jorginho, otherwise there will be other choices.

“What does the future hold? I can say today he’ll remain at Napoli.”
