DONE DEAL ✅: Player finally completes Arsenal medical as Six-years deal is signed, annoucement scheduled and shirt number given
Arsenal has reportedly begun negotiations to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers’ standout player Pedro Neto this summer, as reported by TEAMtalk.
In their pursuit to bolster their wing positions, Arsenal has been linked with several potential signings this transfer window. Nico Williams has emerged as a major target, but Pedro Neto is also a significant consideration. The 24-year-old Neto had an impressive season last year, registering two goals and nine assists in 20 Premier League appearances.
Arsenal’s interest in Neto is not new; he has been on their radar in previous transfer windows, but no decisive move has been made thus far. However, this scenario might change now. According to TEAMtalk, Arsenal has already engaged in talks with Neto’s representatives, and the player has shown a preference for a move to the Emirates Stadium.
The report mentions that although Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are also keen on Neto, Arsenal holds an advantageous position by offering Champions League football. TEAMtalk further notes that Arsenal considers Neto a valuable asset, but his transfer could cost around £50 million, marking him as an expensive option.
Neto is a versatile forward capable of playing on either wing and can also function as a center-forward if required. He possesses speed, strength, technical skill, and the ability to dribble past defenders in tight situations, create scoring opportunities for teammates, and is known for his diligent work off the ball.
Despite Neto’s evident talent and established performance in the Premier League, his recent injury history poses a potential risk for any acquiring club. Consequently, there is a viewpoint that Arsenal might be wiser to explore other options to enhance their attacking force this summer.
Whether Arsenal will move forward with a concrete offer for Neto in this transfer window remains uncertain.
