Calvert-Lewin’s contract expires at the end of next season, and he has been linked with a move away from Goodison Park during the January transfer window.
Beto, who joined from Udinese last year, has struggled to provide adequate leadership and is rumored to be leaving. A return to Serie A seems possible, with Torino hoping to complete a move in January and the 26-year-old eager to leave Everton.
Everton make an approach for Brazil prodigy.
Everton has approached Botafogo forward Igor Jesus for a January move to Goodison Park, joining other Premier League clubs in doing so.
Jesus comes up as an intriguing prospect for Everton, especially given Calvert-Lewin and Beto’s problems, which underscore the need for forward reinforcements. The 23-year-old scored on his debut for Brazil and has four international caps. He hopes to play a significant role in the 2026 World Cup, while Gabriel Jesus and Richarlison may be fading figures.
Jesus has eight goals and five assists in 30 games for Botafogo, but according to All Things Brazil on X, he is “blowing teams away” at the moment.
At 23, the Brazilian should only improve, and while some may be concerned that he has yet to make an impression in European football, Everton will undoubtedly regard him as an upgrade on Beto.
There is competition for Jesus’ signature, so it will be difficult for the Blues to close a deal, especially given their current record, but he would be a highly exciting addition if signed.
