As reported by the Newspaper, the bad luck has been primed with the selection of Portugal and with the Wolverhampton. Pedro Neto, one of the most important footballers of the team that Nuno Espírito Santo trains, will be KO for six months after injuring the ligaments in his left knee. A setback for Wolves and for Portugal who lose a key piece of the selection for the European Championship. For the English it is a hard blow since he was the undisputed starter and joins the injuries of Jonny Otto and Raúl Jiménez.
At 21 years old, Pedro Neto had earned a place among those chosen by Fernando Santos. An offensive resource that joined Cristiano Ronaldo, André Silva, Bernardo Silva, Diogo Jota and João Félix in a real luxury forward for the Portuguese. Now his position, predictably will be occupied by the Barcelona footballer, Trincao, who was the leader of the U-21.
Neto had to retire after half an hour last weekend from the match between Wolves and Fulham. As advertised, Newspaper, the tests to which the end has been subjected in his joint have confirmed the severity of the injury. He will be off the pitch for around six months.
