Parma centre-forward Ange-Yoan Bonny has attracted interest from both Inter and Napoli, with an asking price of at least €25m.
The two clubs did battle for the Scudetto until the final minutes of the season, with the Partenopei pipping the Nerazzurri to the title by a single point.
Now they are becoming rivals on the transfer market too, as the Corriere dello Sport claim both are targeting Bonny to reinforce their squads next term.
The 21-year-old impressed in his debut Serie A season, contributing six goals and four assists in 37 top flight appearances.
He also helped Parma to promotion from Serie B last year, having joined from Chateauroux in 2021 as a very young teenager.
Bonny is under contract with the Ducali until June 2027, so the asking price is believed to be a minimum of €25m.
That is already an increase from the previous figure of €20m, as it is turning into a bidding war.
Nottingham Forest had already tried to secure Bonny in the January transfer window and could well give it another attempt this summer.
Inter need reinforcements, as Marko Arnautovic is expected to leave, while Joaquin Correa has agreed personal terms with Brazilian club Botafogo after his contract was allowed to run down.
