Arteta told possible £50M signing has “ridiculously high potential”

Former Manchester City ace Joleon Lescott has claimed Wolves winger Pedro Neto has “ridiculously high potential” – amid Arsenal speculation

Mikel Arteta has been able to spend some serious money this transfer window on signings that have already made a huge impact at the Emirates – and his side now look like real top four contenders

Neto is one of the top young talents in the Premier League and a player that all the big clubs were ready to make a move for – before he picked up that serious injury that kept him out for most of last season

But Wolves are looking for at least £50m despite just signing a ready-made replacement in £27.5m Goncalo Guedes from Valencia – and that is a fee that Arsenal are reportedly not keen to pay

But amid the speculation that Arsenal are still looking to complete a move for the winger – Lescott has opened up and told Arsenal that Neto has “ridiculously high potential”: Lescott told Livescore: “It looks like Arteta still wants to do a little bit of business before the window shuts and of all the names they’ve been linked with, Pedro Neto is the one that catches my eye.

“He’s become a huge player for my old club Wolves but everyone has their price and I think he’s got ridiculously high potential.”

Neto is Premier League proven – is a brilliant talent and is definitely worth that £50 million price tag – so he would be a great signing for Gunners if they manage to get a deal done

We can’t see him leaving Wolves this transfer window – but he does have the potential to develop into one of the very best wingers in the Premier League
