Everton were successful in signing Beto from Udinese towards the end of the last window, after having missed out on him at the start of this year.
The striker was able to score on his Toffees debut, against Doncaster Rovers, in the EFL Cup. Since then, he has failed to score and managed to register one assist, which came in Everton’s EFL Cup win over Burnley.
Beto is waiting to score his first Premier League goal and despite the recent struggles, he told Gianluca Di Marzio that he’s delighted to have joined Everton. The 25-year-old made this claim when asked to review his first few months at the Merseyside club.
The Portuguese started his career in his country before moving to Italy, when Udinese signed him in 2021. He was asked about his own form at Everton and also the difference between the Premier League and the Serie A.
“It’s difficult to score goals everywhere [laughs]. But here in the Premier League it’s a bit difficult,” Beto explained.
“I have already had several opportunities and I have to continue like this to score. I am never satisfied regardless of whether I have scored or not. I’m never satisfied but when Everton win I’m very happy.”
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has scored four goals and registered one assist in Everton’s last nine matches, which is why Sean Dyche has favoured him over Beto to lead the Toffees’ attack.
