Spurs’ Stealthy Swoop: Clever Move for McNeil’s Potential Successor Outmaneuvers Rivals
Ange Postecoglou has successfully brought European football back to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but the club’s focus on continuous improvement remains unwavering.
The acquisition of Archie Gray from Leeds United demonstrates Spurs’ commitment to securing top young talent, despite the hefty price tag.
This summer, the club is poised to pursue high-profile attacking reinforcements.
Postecoglou’s Pursuit: Tottenham Inquire About £60m Forward
While Tottenham has bolstered their attack with Timo Werner’s loan return for the 2024/25 season, questions linger over Richarlison’s future.
The Brazilian striker, who failed to silence critics last term, is reportedly drawing interest from Saudi Arabia, though no formal offers have been received.
Now, Spurs appear to be making moves for one of their primary attacking targets.
GiveMeSport reports that Tottenham has inquired about Pedro Neto’s availability, a player who’s also caught Arsenal’s attention.
Spurs aim to determine if Neto can be prised away from Wolves in the coming weeks.
Jorge Mendes, Neto’s agent, is expected to successfully orchestrate a move for the Portuguese winger.
Wolves are reportedly seeking around £60m for Neto, though Spurs have reservations about his injury history.
Despite this concern, Neto has established himself as one of the Premier League’s exciting wingers, as evidenced by his performance against Spurs last season.
In 2022, Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher drew comparisons between the 24-year-old and his former teammate Robbie Fowler, stating, “I can’t help but think of a player I played a lot of my career with, Robbie Fowler.
Always finding that side-netting, it seems Wolves have found another really special player.”
