Everton starter has just come out and said he wants to stay amid rumours he could leave

It could be another summer of change for Everton.

Everton have several players out of contract at the end of the season, and there is speculation around some of the other first-teamers.

Recently, there has been increased attention on Iliman Ndiaye’s future amid links to Manchester United and Liverpool.

Ndiaye has previously stated he’s happy at the club, so there seems to be a belief he will stay on Merseyside.

Another Toffees star has been heavily linked with the exit door, but now he’s just come out and said he wants to stay.

Beto says he wants to stay at Everton amid rumours he could be sold

It was reported that Everton were considering offers for Beto in the January transfer window, but they didn’t manage to find a buyer.

The Toffees value the 28-year-old at around £18m, so there is a feeling he may be moved on this summer if anyone meets that price tag.

However, speaking to Everton’s website, Beto has just made it very clear that he has absolutely no intention of leaving.

“The future… Do I want to stay in Everton or not? Of course, I am here – I am home,” Beto stated.

“When the time comes that I am no longer wanted here, I understand because this is football, and I will not be mad, because I understand football and how this works.

“Perhaps it’s my destiny to stay with Everton and if it’s not my destiny, I will still always love Everton.”

Everton certainly has a tough decision to make on Beto, as his contract is due to expire in 2027.

That means this summer would be the final chance to cash in on the former Udinese forward for a decent fee.

At the moment, given his improved form, Moyes will probably be edging towards keeping him and perhaps offering him a new contract.
