Dave Edwards believes every club in the Premier League will be interested in Wolves winger Pedro Neto if he continues to play like he is.
The 23-year-old made headlines again on Saturday against Luton Town, after scoring his first goal of the season.
Neto gave Wolves the lead against the run of play in the second-half.
He latched onto a ball through from Joao Gomes ahead of the defender, jinked inside and lashed the ball into the roof of the net.
It was a goal from a playing oozing confidence at the moment.
Prior to this, Neto had made four assists in the Premier League.
His form is very exciting, but Edwards does foresee a potential problem if things carry on as they are…
Dave Edwards fears big interest in Wolves winger Pedro Neto
Edwards has spoken about Neto in his latest Express & Star column.
Like many people he is so impressed with the Portuguese wide man – hailed as ‘unbelievable’ by Steve Bull recently – at the moment.
But Edwards fears that this return to form may actually cause an issue for Wolves later down the line.
He writes: “The problem Wolves will have is there will be so many suitors for Pedro Neto, with his age his potential his pace every club in the Premier League will be interested in him.
“Saturday was just another example of his ability and it was such a terrific goal. Luton were scared to death of him.
“Each time he got the ball they did not know what to do.”
Neto’s goal was his first in the Premier League for Wolves since May 2022 against Liverpool.
Edwards makes a good point, Neto will be attracting attention
It’s brilliant to see Neto back to his best for Wolves.
He’s had it really tough over the past couple of years with injuries, which has been a major shame given his talent as a footballer and his charm as a human being.
He has been exceptional in these opening weeks of the new season.
Edwards makes a good point.
The only downside to Neto playing so well is that he will surely already be attracting attention from other clubs. It was been reported a few times in the past that Arsenal really like the player.
It’s very possible he could be the next huge sale at Molineux.
Hopefully that will not happen until at least the next summer window.
