Napoli continues to weigh a summer bid for Benfica midfielder Richard Ríos, according to Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport. The 26-year-old Colombian international has been on the Neapolitans' radar for some time.

However, any potential move for Ríos by Napoli hinges on the situation surrounding Frank Anguissa. The Cameroonian midfielder has been linked with a possible departure from the club, which would create an opening for the Benfica player.

Richard Ríos joined Benfica from Palmeiras for €27 million and has been called up for the World Cup. The Eagles would never sell the Colombian's rights for less than €35 million, which presents a hurdle for Massimiliano Allegri, Napoli's likely new coach.
