Report – Torino Prefer Out-Of-Favor Everton Striker Over Inter Milan & Austria Veteran To Replace Duvan Zapata | OneFootball

Torino have cooled their interest in Inter Milan veteran striker Marko Arnautovic on the stroke of the January transfer window.

According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the Turin underachievers have switched their attention to Everton misfit Beto.

Despite being heavily linked with a move for Arnautovic, Torino president Urbano Cairo has other plans.

Torino are in the market for a new center-forward to replace the injured Duvan Zapata.

Meanwhile, Arnautovic’s career at Inter is drawing to a close.

Deemed surplus to requirements by Simone Inzaghi, the 35-year-old is ready to pack his bags this winter.

However, it looks like he won’t be joining Torino.

Torino Make Beto Top Transfer Target Ahead of Inter Milan Star Marko Arnautovic

With Zapata sidelined with a long-term injury, Torino must sign a new goal-getter in January.

Beto has leapfrogged Arnautovic on Cairo’s list of targets.

Therefore, the Austria captain will likely stay at Giuseppe Meazza until the end of the season.

But he’ll depart Inter next summer after the club refused to extend his expiring contract.

Despite being in the autumn of his career, Arnautovic could pen one more lucrative deal before hanging up his boots.

Indeed, several clubs from the United States and Saudi Arabia have reportedly shown interest in capturing his services.
