Newcastle United have reportedly submitted an enquiry for 24-year-old Portuguese international and Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Pedro Neto.
Pedro Neto had an impressive campaign with Wolverhampton Wanderers last season, and Newcastle United are hoping to snap him up. According to HITC, the Magpies have asked about the 24-year-old recently. It will be interesting to see if they follow it up with an official proposal to sign him.
The Portuguese international will be hoping to compete at a high level, and a move to Newcastle could be an attractive opportunity. The report has added that Wolverhampton Wanderers value him at around £50 million.
Newcastle United have an impressive squad and the resources to build a formidable squad. The 24-year-old might be able to fulfil his ambitions with them in the near future. Newcastle certainly have the financial capacity to sign the player. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. Pedro Neto has been linked with other Premier League clubs in recent months as well.
However, he reportedly wants to join a club with Champions League football, which poses a problem. Newcastle missed out on European qualification last season and they will be desperate to bounce back strongly. The Tyneside outfit have been overly dependent on Alexander Isak in the attack.
They need more quality in the final third, and signing a quality winger along with a reliable finisher should be top priorities for them in the summer transfer window. The 24-year-old certainly has the quality to transform them, and it remains to be seen whether Newcastle can convince Wolves to sell the player.

Newcastle are hoping to sign Max Kilman from them as well, and they have already submitted an offer for the defender. Both players would help them improve next season, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops. Meanwhile, the 24-year-old will be focused on impressing in the European Championships with Portugal now.
The European giants certainly have a talented squad, and they are good enough to win the tournament. It will be interesting to see if Neto can impress this summer at the international level. Impressive performances in the European Championships could see his £50 million price rise. The winger recently produced the match winning assist for Portugal against Czech Republic.
