Neto, a 7-year contract for an ultra-long term → 93.9 billion won in transfer fee

 Chelsea have signed Wolverhampton Wanderers ace Pedro Netu to a long-term deal.

Chelsea officially announced on the club's official website on the 11th that it had signed a contract with Netu.

Chelsea announced that it is pleased to announce the signing of Pedro Netu from Wolverhampton Wanderers. Netu and Chelsea signed a seven-year contract.

Netu said, "I'm really happy to be here. I've worked really hard to come here and I'm looking forward to playing in this uniform."

Shortly after his official debut, Netu appeared on the pitch at half-time of a pre-season friendly against Inter Milan at Stamford Bridge in London, England.

Netu, who was born in 2000, is now in his prime. With his brilliant dribbling skills and left-footed kick ability, he is a winger who displays powerful shots as he moves inside.

Netu, who moved to Wolverhampton from Lazio Italy in the summer of 2019, played as an ace for Wolverhampton before Hwang Hee-chan. In particular, he played 2,560 minutes in 31 games in the 2020-2021 season, scoring five goals and six assists, and was an ace. Netu's record for Wolverhampton is 14 goals and 24 assists in 135 games.

However, the problem is too much history of injuries. Since moving to Wolverhampton, he has suffered calf, muscle, knee and ankle injuries, and suffered two hamstring injuries last season. Netu was sidelined for a total of 584 days over the past five years due to injury. Last season, he played in just 15-19 minutes in 20 matches in the league as well. Nevertheless, he displayed strong influence by scoring double-digit attack points with two goals and nine assists.

Netu continued to connect with several Premier League teams as he continued his performance at Wolverhampton. He was connected to Chelsea as well as Tottenham Hotspur. In particular, Tottenham was the most powerful club this summer.

Ben Jacobs, a European football reporter, said on the 9th of last month that Wolverhampton will ask Tottenham's ace Pedro Netu for a large transfer fee through his British media "Give Me Sports."

Jacobs said, "There is no guarantee that Netu will play. Wolverhampton has priced him at least 60 million pounds W106.3 billion. Despite his injury history, the transfer fee has caught the attention of clubs in the past. Tottenham is the club that wants Netu the most relief and values him at around 45 million pounds W79.7 billion."

"Also, Arsenal have shown interest in Netu for a long time, but they have prioritized central midfielders, strikers. PSG have discussed him as well, even though they don't think he is high on the priority list."

Furthermore, the reporter added, "Wolverhampton have not received an official offer for Netu and are planning a Netu for next season. They will discuss offers for players who need to be recruited and are looking to compete in the European competition."

The £60 million deal is Wolverhampton's highest transfer fee ever. Currently, the club's highest transfer fee is 53 million pounds 93.9 billion won from Matheus Núñez, who left for Manchester City last summer.

In response, Netu himself said there would be no transfer.

Netu said he will remain with the club at an event where he met with fans to commemorate the release of away uniforms during Wolverhampton's pre-season tour in the U.S. on the 3rd.

Liam Keane, an English local Express and Star reporter who followed Wolverhampton's pre-season tour, shared key questions from fans and players' Q&A sessions on his social networking service SNS X. The event was attended by Desi Thousand, Nelsong Semedo, new captain Mario Lemina, and Netu in their new away jerseys.

Among them, Netu was asked by a fan whether he would stay with the club. "I love this club. No matter what happens, I'm happy and focused here and I'm trying to take this team to another level," Netu said with a smile.

However, the sudden report to Chelsea made Netu's transfer a fait accompli.

Fabrizio Romano, an expert in the European soccer transfer market who works for the British daily Guardian, said on his social network service SNS on the 9th, "Pedru Netu is heading to Chelsea. Wolverhampton accepted the offer, which includes 60 million euros about 89.4 billion won in transfer fees and an additional 3 million euros about 4.4 billion won."

Romano added credibility to the report by adding his signature comment "Here We Go" when the player's transfer is confirmed. Netu's agent, Jorge Mendes, has agreed on personal conditions with Chelsea, and Netu's medical test is scheduled to take place over the weekend.

British public broadcaster "BBC" also reported that Netu will move to Chelsea, saying, "Chelsea will spend more than 200 million pounds about 348.5 billion won in the summer transfer market as it recruits Netu. If Netu's transfer to Chelsea is confirmed, Wolverhampton will set a record for the highest transfer fee of the club since 47 million pounds about 81.9 billion won recorded when sending Hoobeng Neves to Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia last summer."

A seven-year contract is a rare contract period in the soccer world. It is a common condition only seen in baseball, but Chelsea's new owner, Todd Boehly, has maintained his stance of signing long-term contracts with young and promising players since he owned Chelsea. This can be seen by the fact that most of the contracts of Chelsea's players since Boehly's arrival are long.

Netu is not in his early 20s, but he is still a player with a strong future, and Chelsea seems to have offered a total of seven years, including options, judging that Netu is worthy of a multi-year contract.    토토사이트
