The agent of Liverpool target Jorginho has revealed AC Milan are interested in his client.

Liverpool have been tracking the 21-year-old Hellas Verona star for the past few months, but they face competition for his signature from within Italy with Serie A giants Milan and Fiorentina also keen.

Milan are thought to have accelerated their interest in the last few weeks, although his representative Joao Santos says the San Siro club are yet to produce a formal offer to Verona.

He told TuttoMercatoWeb: "There has been contact, it's true. But Milan has not made a deal with Hellas Verona. Contact only, but nothing concrete.

"Jorginho would be good not only for Milan, but for all the teams who have followed him. He wants to play for Verona first of all."

Brazil-born Jorginho, who has appeared for Italy's U21 side, helped Verona secure promotion from Serie B last term and is preparing for his first campaign in Italy's top-flight.
