Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Paul Stewart has called for new head coach Nuno Espirito Santo to lure Pedro Neto to north London.
Nuno was named as Spurs’ new head coach last month and has gone on to welcome Atalanta goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini and Sevilla’s Bryan Gil to the club.
The ex-Wolverhampton Wanderers boss has been linked with raiding his former club for a host of players still at Molineux, including central defender Willy Boly and the 25-year-old Daniel Podence.

Meanwhile, Spurs have entered the race to acquire the services of exciting Portuguese attacker Pedro Neto, who is also attracting attention from Liverpool and Juventus.
Neto, who joined Wolves two years ago, scored five goals and added six assists in 35 appearances last season.
Stewart would rather see Spurs spend a sizeable chunk of their transfer budget on 21-year-old Neto than plumping for Podence ahead of the Premier League season getting underway next month.

Speaking exclusively to The Transfer Tavern, he said: “He’s young but he looks to have that bit extra than a lot of players.
“For me, Boly and Neto would be far better than Boly and Podence. I think Neto is absolute quality.”
