Pedro Neto reportedly wants to join Arsenal this summer, with Chelsea and Tottenham also interested in the £50 million-rated Wolverhampton Wanderers winger.
According to a report by TEAMtalk, Pedro Neto is the subject of interest from Arsenal. Chelsea and Tottenham are also keen on signing the Portuguese international in the summer transfer window. However, the Wolverhampton Wanderers winger wants to join Arsenal, with the Black Country outfit demanding around £50 million to part ways with him.
The Pedro Neto story
Pedro Neto has established himself as a pivotal figure for Wolverhampton Wanderers since arriving from Lazio in August 2019. While he has struggled with several fitness issues, he has made his mark in the final third whenever he has taken the field for the Black Country outfit.
The 24-year-old has turned out 135 times thus far for Wolverhampton Wanderers while chipping in with 14 goals and 24 assists. While the output has not set the stage alight, Neto showed promising signs as a creator in the 2023/24 season. So, it is hardly surprising that Premier League bigwigs like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham are interested in the £50 million-rated star.
London calling?
Recent reports have pointed to Tottenham being in regular contact with Pedro Neto’s entourage. With Manor Solomon facing an uncertain future at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and the North London club open to parting ways with Richarlison, the Portuguese international is a viable target.
Meanwhile, Chelsea’s interest in Pedro Neto is understandable. Raheem Sterling, Mykhailo Mudryk, and Noni Madueke struggled to make their mark in the 2023/24 season. While the trio will look forward to a fresh start under new Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, the Blues must sign another wide attacker, bringing the Wolverhampton Wanderers star into the picture.
As for Arsenal, Mikel Arteta wants two top-quality options for every position. Neto can complete the wide-attacking unit at the Emirates, making him a viable target for the Gunners. The latest update has boosted Arsenal’s prospects as he wants to join the North London club in the summer transfer window.
Wolverhampton Wanderers want £50 million to part ways with Neto, with the price a fair value for the 24-year-old. It will be interesting to see if Arsenal can capitalise on the latest update and beat Chelsea and Tottenham to the signature of the Portuguese international.
