Maresca: Neto must earn his place with hard work, says Maresca

The Portuguese player arrived at Wolves in the summer for a record fee, joining under the guidance of coach Enzo Maresca.

But the Italian admits that with so much competition for places, Neto will have to work hard to get matches. 

He stated on whether Neto can feature on the right instead of the left wing: "I can hopefully clarify. As a left winger, we have Jadon and Misha. As a right winger, we have Noni and Pedro. As an attacking midfielder, we have Joao (Felix) and Cole (Palmer). As a No.9, we have Nicolas and Christo. 

"We have two players in each position. Now, Christo can play as a nine, an attacking midfielder or as a winger. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall can play in the pocket and can play wide. 

"Pedro was playing as a left winger because Jadon was not here, was not fit, and Misha; between him, Jadon and Pedro, I preferred Pedro for that game. But that doesn't mean I will always prefer Pedro. 

"The squad is quite clear in terms of position. All of them have positions and we have two players in each position. Now, because they are versatile, for sure, we can move them. Christo played the first game against City as a winger."
