Chelsea is reportedly demanding £100 million for Portuguese winger Pedro Neto, according to multiple sources including the BBC, Daily Mail, and journalist Ben Jacobs. The 26-year-old has already agreed to personal terms with Al-Hilal, and the Saudi club has initiated discussions with the London side, though no official offer has been submitted yet. Manchester City had also shown significant interest in the player.

The Daily Mail suggests that Chelsea has set this unexpectedly high price based on the inflated market value of wingers during the current transfer window. This valuation is reportedly influenced by transfers such as Jan Diomande, for whom Real Madrid might pay €140 million, and the similar sum PSG is seeking from Liverpool for Bradley Barcola.

Chelsea acquired Neto from Wolverhampton for £54 million in 2024. The Portuguese international started in Chelsea's recent friendly against Real Sociedad, delivering a strong performance.
