Everton forward Beto is open to a return to Italy as a Torino chief looks to hold face-to-face talks, according to the Sunday People.
The newspaper reported on 19 January (page 47) that the Serie A side’s sporting director Davide Vagnati has identified the 26-year-old as a key transfer target this winter.
The Guinea-Bissau international is interested in a move to Italy after his spell with Udinese before moving to Goodison Park in August 2023.

There is no doubt that the ex-Portimonense forward has had a tough time on Merseyside since signing in a sizable deal worth £30m [BBC Sport].
For the finances involved in the move, the striker has failed to make a positive impact, regularly finding himself playing second fiddle to Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Despite the Englishman being very hit-and-miss in front of goal, Sean Dyche and now David Moyes have still chosen him ahead of the Guinea-Bissau national.
As a result, a move away from Goodison could prove to make sense for all parties in January regardless of a frustrating injury blow for Armando Broja.
