Leeds United are considering a surprise move for Everton striker Beto, as they look to try to strengthen their squad and cement their newly-secured Premier League status.

Sky Sports News has been told Leeds have a potential transfer kitty worth more than £100m to spend across their new signings, such is the level of their ambition to remain in the top tier.

Any deal for Beto would make a significant dent in that budget - he cost Everton more than £20m two years ago, and still has two years left on his contract.

Beto is currently Everton's joint-leading scorer this season, with seven goals across his 27 appearances in the Premier League, and it isn't clear whether David Moyes would be prepared to let him go.
