Chelsea winger Pedro Neto is attracting interest from several Premier League clubs, including Manchester City. The 26-year-old Portugal international is seen as a potential transfer target, as Chelsea considers moving him before the transfer deadline. Neto is not viewed as one of Chelsea's key players, which increases the likelihood of his departure. The club expects to demand a significant fee due to the inflated market for wide forwards, exemplified by recent high transfer valuations. New Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso has included Neto in pre-season games, further indicating the player's continuing role at the club, at least for now.

"Chelsea winger Pedro Neto has attracted interest from four Premier League clubs, with one believed to be Manchester City. The 26-year-old Portugal international is not regarded as one of the 'untouchable' players at Stamford Bridge and could therefore move before the transfer deadline.
