Fiorentina are heading the queue to sign Liverpool and Chelsea target Jorginho - but Hellas Verona will refuse to sanction a January move away for the playmaker.
The Brazilian has enjoyed an electrifying start to his maiden Serie A campaign, scoring seven times in 15 outings, and his progress has alerted a number of clubs in Italy and across Europe.
Liverpool, who are looking to bolster their midfield ranks in January, came close to signing the 21-year-old last summer, while Chelsea and Arsenal are growing increasingly interested in securing his services.
But it is Fiorentina who are the most keen on Jorginho - and they were hopeful of securing a deal in the New Year.
However, Verona are desperate to retain the schemer and will try to resist any offers until the summer at the earliest.
