Euro Club President Offers £5.7m for Permanent January Move for Everton Player – Report

On January 1, reports emerged that Everton is seeking a higher fee for Portuguese forward Beto, with Torino sporting director Davide Vagnati working to bridge the financial gap.

Beto, 26, is eager for more playing time and is open to leaving Goodison Park this month.

However, Everton is unlikely to accept Torino’s bid of £5.7 million, given that Beto joined the club for £25.75 million in August 2023, according to Sky Sports.

Despite his performances not being outstanding, the club sees his potential, especially considering his age.

At 26, Beto has yet to reach his peak, which for strikers typically occurs in their late 20s.

Although he hasn’t been a regular starter, his value remains high due to his physical attributes, experience in various leagues, and future potential.

Everton is also reluctant to accept such a low offer as it would not align with their financial strategy, particularly in light of financial fair play regulations.

Selling him at a loss could undermine the club’s fiscal stability.

Beto’s desire for more playing time means that Everton is likely to negotiate a fee that reflects both his market value and their investment.

The next few weeks will reveal whether Torino is willing to increase their offer for the 26-year-old.
