Is Pedro Neto going to become a star player for the Old Gold?Yes, he has loads of potentialNo, he's not really that good |
In the Premier League this season, Neto has completed the fourth-most dribbles per game on average for the Old Gold, with 1.2 (as per WhoScored).
While that figure is dwarfed by Adama Traore’s 5.2 per game average in the league, supporters could still not help themselves from drooling over the footage which was released by the club.

What do we think?
As can be seen in the footage posted by the Old Gold (per Wolves), it is certainly some silky dribbling that Neto is capable of and with the 19-year-old completing the fourth-most dribbles in the league for Wolves on average, it bodes well for the future.
However, with an average rating in the Premier League of 6.45/10 leaving Neto with the sixth-worst rating of those who have featured for Wolves this term (per WhoScored), perhaps other areas of his game need much improvement.
