Manchester City's recruitment team are believed to be assessing a number of options for the wings ahead of the coming transfer window, with Pedro Neto of Chelsea named among the players being monitored. The report places the Portugal international on a wider list of candidates as City plot potential signings to bolster their attacking wide positions.
Local context and what it could mean for the squad
City have routinely rotated and refreshed wide positions in recent seasons and, with a busy summer forecast across Europe, scouts are said to be compiling alternatives rather than committing to a single pursuit. Monitoring established Premier League talents such as Neto would fit a strategy of targeting players who already understand the demands of English football.
Other transfer talk and wider moves
The same round-up of weekend transfer speculation also highlighted moves and rumours around the Premier League, including interest in midfielders and defensive targets. Managers across the division remain engaged in discussions about their squads as they prepare for pre-season.
