Will Pedro Neto be a star player for the Old Gold eventually?Yes, he'll be classNo, he's not got it |
Wolves secured the services of the 20-year-old attacker alongside Bruno Jordao last summer after the pair had spent two seasons on loan with Serie A side Lazio (as per Wolves).
Since his arrival, Neto has made 35 appearances in all competitions for the Old Gold, in which he has bagged four goals, four assists (per Transfermarkt) and the admiration of supporters.
The young player that some fans questioned the signing of. An incredible burgeoning talent and an exciting prospect.

What do we think?
While many fans had high praise for Neto, the Portuguese 20-year-old has been the sixth-worst performer for Wolves in the Premier League this season with a 6.45/10 average rating (per WhoScored).
However, despite Neto’s average rating being somewhat underwhelming, these Wolves supporters clearly feel that the youngster has a big future ahead of him.
