According to Goal, Liverpool are interested in signing Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Pedro Neto – but any deal is unlikely this summer.
The Reds have snapped up Ibrahima Konate, but Jurgen Klopp may still need some more attacking reinforcements ahead of the new season.
Liverpool raided Wolves to sign Diogo Jota for that very reason last summer, and they may fancy doing it again at some point for Neto.
Liverpool’s interest in Neto
It’s stated that Liverpool fancy Neto as a potential signing, but no deal will happen this summer given that the Wolves winger is injured.
A knee injury means Neto will be out until November or even January depending on his rehabilitation.
That means the 22-year-old may end up being a target for next summer or beyond after shining for Wolves last season.
What has been said about Neto?
Neto really excelled with more playing time last season, and earned huge praise from Jamie Redknapp.
Back in December 2020, after seeing Neto torment Tottenham, Redknapp predicted that Neto would become a ‘world star’.
Redknapp add that Neto is a ‘special’ talent and is ‘sensational’ on the ball, so it’s no great shock that Redknapp’s former club Liverpool now want him.
