‘Don’t join Arsenal, they’re title pretenders,’ Manchester City Star Bernardo Silva advises his £70 million countryman to leave Arsenal and join Manchester City if he truly wants to win the Premier League in his career.
Football Transfers reports that Manchester City has devised a strategy to secure the signing of Wolverhampton Wanderers’ winger, Pedro Neto, ahead of interest from Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal. The Premier League rivals, Arsenal and Manchester City, are both keen on acquiring Neto.
According to the report, Manchester City is assuring Pedro Neto of a starting position in their first squad, with teammates Bernardo Silva and Ruben Dias already reaching out to the winger. All three players represent Portugal. Despite a successful season with multiple trophy wins, including the Premier League, UEFA Champions League, and FA Cup, Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City is eager to convey to Neto that he will play a significant role in their first team in the upcoming season.
Football Transfers highlights that the 23-year-old Portuguese international winger, lauded as “excellent” by former Arsenal star and Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson, has expressed his desire to join a club where he will receive ample playing time if he decides to part ways with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
