Could a Liverpool transfer happen?

Neto was very good for Wolves last season and showed what he can do.

The winger scored five goals and gave six assists in 30 Premier League starts.

However, the youngster has not played since April when he suffered a knee injury.

The Athletic have reported that Neto is not expected to be back in action until at least October.

Wolves manager Bruno Lage has suggested that Neto will not be back for at least two months.

It is unlikely that Liverpool will sign a player who will not be able to play until October.
