“Everyone spending apart from us!” – Ex-Liverpool star makes transfer claim as Arsenal declare Pedro Neto interest.
In light of Arsenal’s reported pursuit of Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Pedro Neto, former Liverpool defender Jose Enrique has expressed his displeasure with the Reds’ summer spending.
Neto, 22, rose to prominence for Wolves during the 2020-21 season with his electrifying performances on either flank. In 35 games across all competitions, he had five goals and six assists.
However, owing to a knee injury, he featured in just 13 Premier League matches last campaign.
According to The Athletic, Arsenal have a concrete and unanimous interest in Neto in the ongoing transfer window. The report also added that discussions between Arsenal, Wolves and the player’s agent Jorge Mendes have been ongoing for over a month.
Taking to Twitter, Enrique referred to the links between the Gunners and the Portuguese forward and said:
“Wow arsenal if they sign him as well… Everyone spending apart from us [Liverpool].”
