‘From what I’m told’: Journalist shares what he’s heard now about Pedro Neto and Arsenal

It seems that Arsenal’s interest in Pedro Neto from Wolves may face financial challenges. According to James Benge, there are no imminent developments in the potential transfer. Arsenal’s significant spending during the previous summer transfer window, including the signing of David Raya, has put a strain on their finances. This makes it difficult to secure a mid-season signing like Pedro Neto, who is expected to come with a high price tag.

Neto’s impressive performances for Wolves have likely driven up his valuation, and it would be a costly acquisition for Arsenal.

Benge suggests that the deal may not happen during the January transfer window due to the financial constraints, even if the club’s owners find a way to finance it.

It’s possible that Arsenal might revisit their interest in Pedro Neto in the following summer transfer window when financial conditions could be more favorable. For now, Neto remains a player of interest for Arsenal, but a deal might have to wait.
