Spurs face one big hurdle in race for Premier League winger – Journalist
According to Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth, Pedro Neto wants to move to a club with Champions League football, thus complicating Tottenham’s efforts to land the Wolves star.
Pedro Neto is on Tottenham’s radar
The Neto to Spurs rumours had gone quiet for a while but they re-emerged last week when Tottenham insider Paul O’Keefe revealed that the Wolves star is back on the North London club’s wishlist as they plot a move for a winger.
A few days ago, Fabrizio Romano revealed on Playback that the 24-year-old is indeed on Spurs’ radar, with the journalist adding that the attacker is greatly appreciated by the Lilywhites hierarchy.
However, Romano explained that Ange Postecoglou’s men do have some concerns about the Portuguese star’s poor fitness record.
Pedro Neto wants Champions League football
Sheth has now suggested that while Neto is ready to leave the Molineux Stadium, he has made it clear that he wants to join a Champions League club, although the Sky reporter refused a rule out the player joining Spurs later in the window.
He said on The Last Word on Spurs podcast: “At the moment, and this could change, but if he was to move it’s likely he’d want to go to a club that has Champions League football next season.
“That would rule Tottenham out at the moment, but that’s not to say that later in the window that if Tottenham really pushed for him and nobody else came in for him you can’t rule it out.”
Spurs Web Opinion
It does not seem like any of these outlets have any clue who Tottenham’s top targets are for the wide birth.
The club are seemingly keeping tabs on a few options and one would expect them to narrow in on their first choice over the coming days.
