Napoli sporting director Giovanni Manna has said the club only want to sign Manchester United forward Alejandro Garnacho on their 'conditions' after reportedly making an improved bid for the winger.

The Serie A side have been pursuing the Argentine in the January transfer window, after signing another United player in Scott McTominay in the summer.

Despite ongoing negotiations though, the two clubs are yet to reach an agreement for the 20-year-old, who has made 31 club appearances this season.

And now Manna has insisted Napoli will only complete a deal on their own terms.

But unlike Marcus Rashford, who was also dropped for the derby clash and has not played a minute under Amorim since, Garnacho swiftly returned to the first-team fold.

And he's started the club's last two games, the FA Cup win at Arsenal and the 3-1 victory against Southampton on Thursday.

He's expected to again be involved when United host Brighton at Old Trafford today in a 2pm kick-off. And the latest developments on his future come just three days after Amorim insisted the academy product remained part of his plans, praising the way he's adapted to the new 3-4-3 formation.

"That is clear," he said before the Southampton game. "He has talent." He's finding the best way to play in this system and is improving all the time during training.

"He improves a lot in the recovering position when he doesn't have the ball. But doing that, sometimes he's not in the right place to make transitions like he was in the past."

Garnacho was considered critical to his team last season, playing 50 times and playing a key role in their FA Cup final win over City.

He's also been linked with Chelsea, but United are not expected to sell one of their prized assets to a rival Premier League side.
