He's better than Jota. What's the asking? £30m would be a steal

Olise is not as quick as Antony. I don’t know where people are getting this “Antony is slow” thing from. He’s rapid.
And our fans need to get through their thick skull that for this window a new manager, with different direction has different targets than those that were on the list for the last guy.
You're right, he's not as quick as Antony, he's quicker. Watch them both play. Olise can skip past defenders easily, Antony can't. People keep saying Antony is slow because he is. He's not our player (yet), so no need to be in denial.
I’m sure the Ajax lads posted speeds and Antony was faster than people thought. He’s not slow at all.
Hadn't heard of any links with him. He's talented for sure and Wolves are desperate to sell players as they have no money atm so he would be relatively cheap I imagine. Last season his end product wasn't great though. I know he's still young and you'd expect that to improve but I wouldn't really want us relying on him too much tbh. Certainly significantly ahead of the level of any of our young attackers atm though (our backups I mean, not our starters). Has been playing as a false 9 in pre-season for Wolves also so could even potentially fill in for Martial in the case of an injury. I think I'd personally prefer Olise still who has a buy-out clause of £35m but overall not the worst option.
Malacia is not rapid by any means and he had him covered for pace.
Neto was amazing for Wolves before his injury, so the only (albeit major) question is how he recovers from it.
Maybe they accidentally watched there YouTube compilations on half speed by mistake.
Neto would be an amazing signing for United.
He was absolutely fantastic for Wolves pre injury and I honestly thought he would be a nailed on Liverpool player due to his playing style, he's relentless.
Would be a big upgrade on Rashford at LWF.

Damnit, people need to stop randomly bumping transfer threads without an update. Got me all excited.
Finally a little (barely but I'll take it) link. Can we will this into happening? Would love it if we signed him. Hard working, huge pace, good dribbler, creates chances, huge potential, left footed and can play on either wing.Tweet

not sure we know he's fully back from his injury?
Tier 5
This one would excite me. We'd ruin him in a couple of games, mind, as is the United way.
Played against Leeds at the weekend and looked so sharp. Would love this to happen
Class player. If he recovers 100% from his injury he’s gonna be at an elite club next summer.
"Among clubs offered Neto"
The way that's worded it suggests Wolves are open to letting him leave. Or am I reading it wrong?

Always get the feeling at Wolves that they get these Mendes clients on the understanding that a reasonable fee is enough to pry them away, so I imagine they are ways offered about.
Yeah, that's my interpretation as well. Like Wolves have been offering him out!
Bit of a red flag isn't it? He's a decent enough player but if Wolves aren't that desperate to hold on to him then is he really going to be good enough for us?
Would 100% take this lad, also doesn't look like the injury has affected him all that much from what I've seen in the last two games.
If the club was ran right. They’d just get him.
Would be a step in the right direction. He's a good player and plays the game at high speed/high intensity.
Would be a good signing, won't happen.
Mendes prefers them to move on, you just have to look at Nunes (he rejected Wolves earlier in the window).
Mendes runs Wolves. He got them Cunha, so he's probably telling them they have to let Neto leave reasonably.
People need to stop thinking a player being offered out is a red flag. That's not a thing.
What's Pedro Neto's numbers been in the PL?
Nunes not Cunha.
I bet we'll use the money towards rashfords new contract instead
Yeah, unless it was just worded incorrectly! On the flip side, if they're not desperate to hold onto him, they won't try and fleece us for him! But I wouldn't think they'd willingly try and sell anyway. They just signed Guedes from Valencia, iirc. So maybe Podence and Guedes is their intended starters? I wouldn't mind a punt on Neto at a decent fee - especially if we're able to land FDJ, plus it seems EtH is keen on another CM, RB and forward (should Ronaldo leave). We're not going to have a ton to spend on an attacker considering our owners.
11 goals in 94 apps for Wolves so far. Almost a goal every 9 games.
Sign him up. Hahahaha
Sign him up. Hahahaha
Wrong Matheus that I've never watched
messes with my brainWould love this.
Those numbers will only get worse at the graveyard of dreams.
He’s brilliant. I love him. We won’t sign him.
His first season wasnt great even performance wise but the full season he had the season before last (he was injured most of last season?) he was excellent. Both feet, very quick and direct. I am the most pessimistic person ever but have no doubt he would be a dream in comparison to watching Rashford stink out the left wing
He's a young winger with potential. Excellent ball carrying and dribbling. Pacey. Good defensive work rate. He's not much of a goal scorer but he's good for his chance creation. Left footed and can play either wing.
United isn't in a position to sign already elite level players. Going for Neto now is like Liverpool going after Jota right on the verge of him blowing up. Its a smart signing and there's a lot of analytics that point to Neto being one that will make a big step up.
Big difference there though....
Jota came into a team that was settled and world class and where his contribution wasn't really going to be telling.
We are a shambles and kind of need players to hit the ground running.
On the face of it he's not a bad player but the price won't be cheap and the demands on him will be high even if that's unfair on the lad.
Mendes doing united a favour and arranging a little transfer shuffle.
