Mikel Arteta warned against signing forward in the summer

Arsenal expected to make a move for Pedro Neto this summer.

The Gunners are keen to add a forward in the summer and has been a long-time admirer of Wolves forward Pedro Neto.

The Portuguese international was approached by Arsenal 18 months ago to provide cover and competition to Bukayo Saka.

But Neto suffered a serious knee injury that ruled him out of action for over nine months and the move was never sanctioned.

He is one of the most in-form players in the Premier League and could give stiff competition to the likes of Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli.

Pedro has a contract with the English club until the summer of 2027 and clubs will have to shell out a premium to sign him.

But Arsenal legend David Seaman believes the club should not pursue a move for the Portuguese international this summer.

‘Would I take Pedro Neto at Arsenal? When you look at what’s in there already in the Arsenal team, you don’t really want to disrupt that, so probably not,’ the former Arsenal goalkeeper told Parimatch.

‘But he’s a special player for Wolves. What I loved about the Wolves performance against Spurs at the weekend was their second goal – Neto broke from his own half, took it all the way and then squared it for Joao Gomez.’
