Portugal international Pedro Neto of Wolverhampton is expected to be sidelined for the rest of the season, leaving him at risk of qualifying for the 2024 European Championship finals, his English coach Gary O’Neill has said.
The 24-year-old winger suffered a muscle injury in last weekend’s match against Marco Silva’s Fulham and could miss the rest of the season, as well as the tournament Portugal play in Germany.
“He’ll probably miss the rest of the season. We’ll see. Maybe he’ll come back in the last few games, but it will be difficult,” Gary O’Neill said at a press conference after the loss. at Coventry City in the FA Cup.
Neto is again stalled in a career that is still short but dogged by several injuries, including a knee problem that has kept the winger out for almost a year.
The left-hander, who has five caps and one goal for Portugal, played two games for Roberto Martinez’s side in Euro 2024 qualifying (in Slovakia and Bosnia-Herzegovina) and was publicly named by the Spanish coach as one of the candidates to be shortlisted for the next championship Europe, which will take place from June 14 to July 14 in Germany.
