Udinese apparently have a special reason to feel disappointed about Beto’s transfer to Everton last summer.
After long negotiations, the Toffees signed the centre-forward in a €25m deal in the final days of the transfer window.
As TuttoUdinese today features a story about the striker, they highlight he’s been of little use for Everton lately.
Beto had only been used by the Toffees as a substitute, and wasn’t even brought into the game in their win over West Ham at the weekend.
Meanwhile, Udinese are 17th in Serie A, with only six goals, and one of those was by Beto before the move to Goodison Park. That’s why TuttoUdinese writes his ‘absence is certainly felt’.
There’s obviously a long time left in the 25-year-old’s career at Everton, as he signed a contract which runs until 2027. Still, with the local media now highlighting his lack of playing time at Everton, it wouldn’t be strange if they start talking about a loan back to Udinese in the near future should he continue to lack prominence.
Beto has scored one goal for the Toffees so far, and that was in the EFL Cup match against Doncaster Rovers.
