Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on Wolves winger Pedro Neto this summer, with Arsenal also vying for his signature.
According to Fabrízio Romano via Give Me Sport, Tottenham are in regular contact to sign 24-year-old Portuguese international Pedro Neto, and they have initiated discussions regarding a potential move with his agent. Spurs will face competition from North London’s rival Arsenal as well for the Wolverhampton Wanderers winger.
“They are in regular contact with the agent of Pedro Neto. For Pedro Neto, it really depends on the fee. He had many injuries, so Tottenham would be happy to try again for Pedro Neto, but only in normal conditions, not crazy conditions. This is why it also depends on Wolves.”
Neto is highly rated in the Premier League, and he has a bright future ahead of himself. The 24-year-old could prove to be a quality acquisition for Tottenham, and he could help them improve going forward.
The Portuguese international is capable of operating on either flank, and he will add goals, creativity, and flair to the side. The winger is reportedly valued at £60 million, and it will be interesting to see if Tottenham are willing to pay that kind of money for him. Spurs will need to improve the other areas of their squad as well over spend on a winger.
Arsenal keen on Pedro Neto
Arsenal are looking to improve their attacking unit as well, and the Wolves winger would be a quality long-term investment for them. The 24-year-old is well settled in the Premier League and he could make an instant impact if he joins Arsenal.
The Gunners have not been able to rotate players like Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli due to the lack of depth in the squad. Pursuing the Portuguese international would be ideal for them. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham follow up on their contact with the player’s agent with an official proposal to the club.
Spurs will need to pay a premium in order to get the deal done. Arsenal have the finances to pay big money for the winger as well. It will be interesting to see if either of the two clubs follow up on their interest with an official bid for the £60 million-rated attacker.
