Chelsea Seal Neto Deal in Big-Spending Summer
- Chelsea have completed the signing of Neto
- The 24-year-old is set to undergo a medical
- The transfer also marks a club-record sale
Chelsea have completed the signing of Portuguese winger Pedro Neto from Wolverhampton Wanderers in a deal worth €63 million (£54 million).
The 24-year-old is set to undergo a medical before officially joining the Blues, who have now spent over £200 million on new players this summer.
The deal was finalized after Chelsea saw two previous offers rejected by Wolves.
The London club’s persistence paid off as they secured the highly-rated winger.
Neto, known for his pace and creativity, has been a key player for Wolves since joining from Lazio in 2019.
His move to Chelsea represents a significant outlay for the Blues but signals their intent to bolster their attacking options.
The transfer also marks a club-record sale for Wolverhampton Wanderers, surpassing the fee received for Ruben Neves last summer.
