Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing the Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Pedro Neto.
According to Football Insider, the Gunners will have to pay a premium in order to secure his services. Wolves are not keen on selling him for cheap and the 23-year-old has been in fine form this season.
It remains to be seen whether Arsenal are prepared to pay a huge fee in order to sign the Portuguese international. The Gunners need to add more depth in the wide areas and Neto would be a quality signing. The 23-year-old is versatile enough to operate on both flanks, and he will add creativity and technical ability to the side.
Neto has shown his quality in the Premier League with Wolves and he is certainly good enough to play for a big club like Arsenal. The Gunners have not been able to rotate key players like Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka over the past year due to the lack of options in the squad.
The signing of the Portuguese international would allow Mikel Arteta to rest his key players and keep the squad fresh.
Apparently, the 23-year-old would be interested in joining a big club like Arsenal and he wants to compete for major trophies. It remains to be seen whether the two clubs can work out an agreement now.
A move to Arsenal would be the ideal next step in Neto’s career and he will be able to compete in the Champions League with them.
He is on a confidence run, but Arsenal would not pay more than £40 million for a “non international regular” but he has his moments in spurts during a game, but only for 5 minutes here 5 minutes there, but is mainly quiet during the whole 90 minute, unlike Martinelli and Saka who is constantly hounding defenders during the whole 90 minutes. So that is why he is valued at £40 million.
You have no chance of getting Neto for 40mill more like 60 or 70 mill all the same the big 6 teams want every player on the cheap but their players are worth a fortune.
and wolves wont’t sell him cheap..arsenal are not the only club that want him
Pete O’Rouke stealing a living AGAIN, let’s look at a few FACTS….
▪︎ Neto under contract until 2027
▪︎ Wolves no longer have FFP issues
▪︎ 4 Premier LeagueClubs interested + Foreign Clubs
▪︎ Will he want to play 2nd fiddle to Sako
IMO he will end up in Spain, for alot more than £40m, remember, Arsenal paid £70m+ for Pepe!
Josh Kroenke wanted Pépé. Not Emery at the time nor Arteta after.
