Everton striker Beto has been heavily linked with a move to Torino and he has been spotted at an airport today, fueling the speculation surrounding his future.
The Toffees have just been taken over by The Friedkin Group, who are keen to bring in January additions, but player sales may be required first due to their PSR situation.
Everton manager Sean Dyche, meanwhile, is under serious pressure after the club have won just three of their 19 Premier League games so far, leaving them 16th in the table as things stand. They could be in the bottom three by Monday evening if results go against them.
Beto is one player Everton could reportedly sacrifice to enable them to make January additions.
As mentioned, Torino are very interested in Beto and would reportedly be willing to agree to a €7million (£5.8m / €7.2m), so there is a significant gap in valuations.
It’s claimed that high-flyers Atalanta are also attentive to Beto’s situation as they look to bring in a new centre-forward this summer.
The report adds that a switch to Roma, who are also owned by The Friedkin Group, cannot be ruled out. The competition for Beto’s signature could play into Everton’s hands as they look to recoup as much cash as possible for his exit.
However, Everton are at risk of losing more than one striker this season. Calvert-Lewin is in the final months of his Toffees contract and is eligible to hold pre-contract talks with foreign clubs this month ahead of a free transfer next summer.
