Liverpool and Arsenal They are reportedly showing “strong interest” in signing Wolverhampton Wanderers star Pedro Neto in the next transfer window, according to the Spanish media Transfers.
The Merseyside club have reportedly been exploring the market to sign a new right winger as a possible replacement for Mohamed Salah – who has been linked with a departure from the club in recent times.
Leroy Sane, Jarrod Bowen and Nico Williams have all been mentioned as potential targets for the Reds, but Neto is also reportedly on their radar.
According to the report of TransfersLiverpool are showing “great interest” in signing Neto and could take concrete steps to secure his signature in the next transfer market.
The report further claims that Wolves are currently in financial difficulty, so they might be willing to cash in on Neto to pump some money into the club, but they wouldn't let him leave cheaply and wanted a “considerable sum.”

It has recently been reported that the West Midlands club could demand a fee of around £60 million for Neto, so Liverpool will have to pay a large amount to acquire the Portuguese international.
However, Transfers He claims that acquiring Neto's service will not be easy for Liverpool, as Arsenal are also interested in signing him to reinforce their forward department.
The Gunners have apparently been looking to sign a new right-winger to support Bukayo Saka. However, despite being linked with numerous options they have not chosen to sign anyone yet.
Arsenal have a long-term interest in Neto, having previously wanted to sign him to strengthen their attack. But the Wolves did not allow him to leave, so the deal did not go through. However, with Wolves now keen to cash in on him this summer, Arsenal could finally manage to buy the striker.
Neto has shown his qualities in the first division in recent times, so it would be a huge coup for Arsenal or Liverpool if either club manages to secure his signature.
But it will be interesting to see who will ultimately win the race to sign Neto should the Gunners go head-to-head with the Reds over this deal during the off-season.
