Arsenal interested in Pedro Neto

Neto would be a fantastic signing for Arsenal. He is a player with game-changing ability. And it is almost remarkable to think that he is only 22 years of age given that he has already played 74 times in the Premier League.

Neto was involved in Wolves’ goal in their defeat to Leeds at the weekend. And there was one particular piece of skill that stunned Elland Road and saw the youngster get away from two Leeds players in a flash.

He has previously been labelled a ‘sensational‘ player. And reports have suggested in the past that Liverpool are admirers. .

So it would be a huge coup for Arsenal to strike a deal. Wolves are not going to let him go on the cheap. But if there is an opportunity to reach an agreement, the Gunners must strike.
