Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing the Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Pedro Neto.
The 24-year-old has had his fair share of injury problems this past season, but he has impressed whenever he was fit to play. The Portuguese international picked up three goals and 11 assists in all competitions and his performances have attracted the attention of the North London club.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Tottenham ‘appreciate’ the 24-year-old attacker and he is ‘on the list’ of transfer targets for this summer. It will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done. Wolves will not want to sell the player for a knockdown price, and they could easily demand a substantial amount of money for their star attacker.
“Pedro Neto and Spurs, he is one of the names they have on the list. Pedro Neto, for sure, the only doubt has always been on injuries, so that is the point to clarify on Pedro Neto, but he’s one of the players they appreciate.”
Neto could be attracted to the idea of joining Tottenham this summer. It would be a step up in his career and he would get to compete at a high level. Tottenham have an exciting project and a quality manager. They could easily be pushing for major trophies in the coming seasons, and Neto will certainly be attracted to the idea of playing for them.
According to Give Me Sport, Tottenham remain worried about his injury history, and it will be interesting to see whether they decide to follow up on their interest with an official proposal. There is no doubt that Neto has the physical and technical attributes to develop into a top class Premier League attacker, but he needs to get over his injury problems.
The 24-year-old is versatile enough to operate on both flanks and he will add pace, goals, and creativity to the Tottenham attack if he joins the club.
