Arsenal have received a potential boost in their search for a new winger. Journalist Simon Phillips and insider Graham Bailey confirm that Chelsea are open to selling 26-year-old Portuguese winger Pedro Neto this summer for a lucrative financial offer.
Key details on the potential transfer
Chelsea's position: The club is not actively looking to transfer the player, but they are prepared to enter negotiations if a buyer offers between £60-70 million, in line with Malo Gusto's valuation.
- Player motivation: Neto has not submitted a formal transfer request but is receptive to a move due to increased competition at Stamford Bridge following transfers featuring Morgan Rogers and Geovany Quenda.
