Pedro Neto has been on Arsenal’s radar for much of the last two seasons. Wolves have excelled in signing and developing promising young players, with Neto being the latest on a list that Arsenal finds intriguing.
The winger is considered an ideal alternative to Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli and could step in, especially with Martinelli currently injured.
This might be the case in the summer, and in a boost to Arsenal’s chances of signing him, Football Insider claims the attacker wants to play in the Champions League next season.
After a lengthy absence from the competition, Arsenal is set to participate in the UCL in back-to-back seasons as they compete for the Premier League title.
The Gunners can offer him the top-tier European football he craves, potentially giving them an edge in the race for his signature.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Neto has been a fantastic player in the Premier League, and he is talented enough to play for a Champions League club.
He might not be an instant starter on our team, but we are sure he will get game time and push the players ahead of him.

I don’t think we need him at all. I think Olise is a far better player suitable to our system, if at all Mikel intends to recruit a back up for Bukayo. Neto is not the type of winger we need, we already have his type in Martinelli and Nelson who are equally as pacy.
@Vamos, Saka absolutely needs a back up, no doubt in that and also a quality backup. Nelson is not at the level of Neto. Also Neto can play on both wings and could even rotate with Martinelli with Trossard as the false 9 or inthe midfield.
Good player; could give our wingers a good run for their money.
But his affinity with the treatment room is a worry. So, not worth the kind of money I hear Wolves will be demanding for him.
Priority for next season remains a top-quality striker and a world-class No.6 to take the place of Thomas Partey
His name got to be on the card when it matters.
Neto is an excellent player, no doubt but the only worry is his injury record. If he improves on that and remains injury free, arsenal could be signing a fantastic player.
Neto would be great backup for saka as well as giving us an alternative pacy outlet to Martinelli which we really need. His injury record is worrying but he won’t play as much with here so it will be better managing his health.
Imagine being fullbacks defending for 65min vs Saka/Martinelli then see fresh trossard/Neto substituted in.
