New Development in Al Hilal's Talks with Neto

Al Hilal's attempts to secure the signing of Portuguese winger Pedro Neto from Chelsea have encountered a new obstacle, as the financial demands required have become a decisive factor in the future of the negotiations.

Al Hilal has included Neto in a shortlist of three wingers, from which the club will choose one to bolster their attacking line during the current summer transfer window.

The Portuguese winger is attracting significant interest from Al Hilal's management, which continues to explore the possibility of signing him, as they aim to add a new attacking element to the squad.

According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, negotiations have not stopped, but Chelsea's financial evaluation of the player remains high, which could complicate reaching an agreement.

The English club's position puts Al Hilal in a financial test, especially since Manchester City also considered Neto's value to be high during their previous attempts to secure the player's services.

Al Hilal continues its efforts in the transfer market, keeping several options open in anticipation of potential setbacks in negotiations for Neto due to Chelsea's financial demands.

Neto, 26, has played 135 matches for Chelsea, scoring 19 goals and providing 19 assists for his teammates.

The Portuguese winger has 38 goal contributions with the English club, while his potential transfer to Al Hilal remains tied to the outcome of negotiations between the two clubs.

Pedro Neto has been a standout performer for Chelsea since joining the club. His contributions on the pitch have been pivotal in several matches, showcasing his skills and versatility. With a remarkable number of assists and key passes, Neto has quickly become a fan favorite. His ability to create opportunities for his teammates has been crucial in Chelsea's pursuit of success this season.
