Talks over a new deal have led nowhere so far, so the Partenopei may be listening to offers for the 29-year-old midfielder in the 2025 summer transfer window.
La Gazzetta dello Sport reported earlier this week that Chelsea were closely monitoring Anguissa, but the Turkish website claims the Blues will have to beat competition from Mourinho, who is a long-time admirer of the former Fulham midfielder.
Anguissa has had an extraordinary season at the Stadio Maradona, scoring six goals and providing four assists in 32 appearances across all competitions in the 2024-25 campaign.

Bologna Could Offer Ex Inter Milan Star As Part Of Deal For Fiorentina Winger – Inter Haven't Activated Buyback Bologna could offer Giovanni Fabbian to Fiorentina as part of a deal for winger Riccardo Sottil, with Inter Milan not having exercised their buyback. This according to today's print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews. Advertisement Bologna are preparing for the possibility of losing winger Dan Ndoye this summer. There is a fair bit of transfer interest in the Swiss international. Particularly from Napoli. And according to the Corriere dello Sport, Bologna's top target to replace Ndoye is Fiorentina's Riccardo Sottil. Sottil is back at the Stadio Artemio Franchi after having spent the second half of last season on loan with AC Milan, Bologna Could Offer Fabbian As Part Of Deal For Sottil – Inter Haven't Used Buyback BOLOGNA, ITALY – FEBRUARY 23: Giovanni Fabbian of Bologna FC looks on during the Serie A TIM match between Bologna FC and Hellas Verona FC – Serie A TIM at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara on February 23, 2024 in Bologna, Italy. (Photo by) According to the Corriere dello Sport, the Rossoblu could make a player-plus-cash offer to convince Fiorentina. They could put midfielder Giovanni Fabbian on the table. Advertisement There is one particular hitch in the idea of offering Fabbian to Fiorentina, however. That is the fact that Inter Milan still have a buyback option on the 22-year-old. Inter sold Giovanni Fabbian to Bologna in the summer of 2023. They sold him outright, rather than just loaning him out. However, the Nerazzurri did insert a buyback option in the deal. They can sign Fabbian back this summer for a fee of €12 million. Nevertheless, the Corriere report, that option expires at the end of this month. And as of yet, Inter have given no indication that they intend to activate it.
