Arsenal target Pedro Neto confesses being huge Gooner

Wolves winger Pedro Neto has confessed growing up a mad Gooner.

The Portugal international is a late summer market target for Arsenal as they seek a new winger addition.

And speaking in 2020, Neto admitted he was a big Arsenal fan when growing up.

He told talkSPORT: “When I was a kid, my favourite team in England was Arsenal.

Arsenal, yeah, because with Arsene Wenger I thought [even though] they didn't win trophies, they played very good football."

Although Arsenal are keen to strike a deal for Neto, Wolves are currently in a strong bargaining position. The forward penned a new long-term deal tying him to Molineux until the summer of 2027 back in March, while the club have just raked in £42million from the sale Morgan Gibbs-White.
