In a recent report, journalists Jack Gallagher and Graeme Bailey mentioned that Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Pedro Neto is on the radar of Liverpool. It has been stated that the Reds are hoping to the Portuguese wide player from the West Midlands club next year.

Neto's Decent Numbers In The Premier League Neto is enjoying another impressive season at the Molineux Stadium after putting in a series of productive displays for Wolves in the final third. The 23-year-old has found the back of the net once and earned five assists in eight matches for the Midlands club during this campaign across various competitions.

The Portuguese sensation has caught the eye by averaging 1.5 shots, 2.5 key passes and 1.1 dribbles per 90 minutes in the Premier League. He has even been careful when distributing the ball in the opponent's half, as evidenced by his pass completion rate of 82.8% in the English first division (stats via whoscored).

Neto is under contract at Wolves until the summer of 2027. Hence, there is no immediate need for Gary O'Neil to cash in on him next year.

The Portuguese wing wizard can shoot the ball with power and precision from long range. However, Neto needs to find a way to be more consistent in front of the opponent's goal. He is primarily a right-winger but can also play as a left-sided wide player if told to do so.

Neto remains a very important member of Wolves head coach Gary O'Neil. Hence, the Midlands outfit simply cannot afford to lose him when the transfer commences at the start of January.

O'Neil's men still have European ambitions of their own. Hence, Wolves cannot let Neto leave this winter. The English outfit should rather wait until the end of this campaign before deciding on the Portuguese talent's future.

Neto is still under a long-term contract and could help Wolves compete for a top-eight finish in the Premier League this season.
