Liverpool already have a replacement for Emre Can, who is almost certainly going to move to Juventus at the end of the season.
Jorginho is likely to cost the Reds a fee in the region of £50m, but the Napoli midfielder is worth it.
Arsenal and Manchester United are also monitoring developments, but the 26-year-old Brazilian-born Italy international looks set for a move to Anfield.
Watch him in action for Italy when they take on Argentina at the Etihad on Friday night and England at Wembley on Tuesday.
