Pedro Neto is one to watch in the coming days as Al Hilal continue to monitor the Chelsea winger alongside two other attacking options.
The Saudi Pro League side have identified Neto as a major target, but no decision has been made as they assess the Portuguese international against alternatives on their shortlist.
Tottenham are also keeping Neto on their list, but their interest is currently dependent on the outcome of their pursuit of Savinho. Should that move fail, the Chelsea winger could become a more serious option for Spurs.
Manchester City made contact over Neto several weeks ago but consider Chelsea’s valuation too expensive.
Softfootball reported on Monday that Chelsea had yet to receive an official offer for the 26-year-old despite Al Hilal stepping up their interest.
Chelsea are understood to value Neto at close to £100 million, which remains the major obstacle for any potential deal.
Meanwhile, Al Hilal are also advancing their pursuit of Ollie Watkins, with the Aston Villa striker keen on the Saudi move and the club considering a €45 million package.
With Al Hilal weighing multiple attacking targets and Chelsea maintaining a high valuation, Neto’s situation is expected to develop further soon.
