Tuttomercato reports that Beto has been considered in a transfer situation presenting potential challenges for Bologna, as Everton will only accept a permanent transfer, an arrangement that is not very compatible with Bologna's financial constraints.

Bologna showed interest in Beto before the 2024/25 season, considering him as a potential striking reinforcement. Beto previously impressed in Serie A with Udinese, scoring 21 goals in 62 games across two seasons.

Bologna considered Beto as an option when there was still a valuation gap with Tolosa regarding Dallinga.

Beto has been proposed to Bologna for a return to Italy after moving to Everton from Udinese a year ago.
