Saudi club Al-Hilal is actively pursuing several prominent attacking players to strengthen their squad before the upcoming season, with new names emerging in their transfer considerations.

Italian journalist Gianluigi Longari reported that Pedro Neto, the Portuguese winger currently at Chelsea, has been proposed to Al-Hilal by his agent Jorge Mendes. This move signals the club’s expanding influence in the global football market as they receive direct offers from agents representing European stars.

Al-Hilal has already secured the signing of Dutch forward Crysencio Summerville and continues to evaluate multiple European players to enhance their attacking options. The club’s interest in Neto aligns with their strategy to acquire several quick wingers, a tactical preference of coach Simone Inzaghi, who emphasizes attacking transitions and high pressing.

While the proposal of Neto to Al-Hilal does not confirm ongoing negotiations, it indicates the club’s openness to exploring all potential opportunities to finalize their attacking reinforcements. Neto is recognized as one of the leading Portuguese wingers in recent years, known for his exceptional pace and effectiveness in one-on-one situations. His versatility in playing multiple attacking roles makes him a suitable candidate for Al-Hilal’s plans this season.
