Real Betis reportedly join the race for Inter Milan attacker Joao Mario, who is widely expected to leave his Italian club this summer.

Real Betis have reportedly joined the race for Inter Milan attacker Joao Mario.

Mario spent the second half of last season on loan at West Ham United, scoring twice in 13 Premier League appearances for the Hammers.

The Portugal international is currently on holiday following the 2018 World Cup, but Inter are keen to sell ahead of the 2018-19 campaign.

Wolverhampton Wanderers have been strongly linked with a move, but it is understood that Inter have informed the Premier League outfit that it will cost them £24m to sign the 25-year-old.

According to Record, Betis are also interested in acquiring the attacker this summer, although the La Liga outfit want to take him on a season-long loan.

Betis, who have already signed William Carvalho from Sporting Lisbon this summer, impressed in La Liga last season - collecting 60 points from their 38 league fixtures to claim sixth position in the table.
