Chelsea have rewarded Pedro Neto for his strong performances and growing importance to the team by handing the Portugal international a new contract that will keep him at Stamford Bridge until 2032. Neto, who joined the Blues two years ago, attracted interest from several Premier League clubs, including Manchester City, during the summer but opted to remain in west London and continue working under manager Xabi Alonso.
Chelsea Hand Pedro Neto Long-Term Contract Extension Until 2032
Chelsea have secured Pedro Neto’s long-term future by handing the Portugal international a new contract that will keep him at Stamford Bridge until 2032. The 26-year-old joined the Blues from Wolverhampton Wanderers in August 2024 for a reported £54 million and has since established himself as an important part of the squad. Despite interest from several Premier League clubs, including Manchester City, Neto chose to remain at Chelsea and continue under manager Xabi Alonso.
Neto has made 108 appearances for Chelsea since his arrival, contributing 40 goals and assists during that time. He has also started the new season strongly, scoring twice already, including the goal that completed Chelsea’s comeback in their dramatic 6-3 Carabao Cup win over Leeds United. His versatility has also made him a valuable option, with the Portuguese able to operate on either flank, as a false nine, in a No. 10 role or as a wing-back.
The winger was an important figure in Chelsea’s trophy-winning campaign in 2025, helping the club lift both the UEFA Conference League and FIFA Club World Cup. He scored three times during the Club World Cup, while his first Premier League goal for the club came against Arsenal. Neto also produced a late winner against Fulham that helped Chelsea in their push for Champions League qualification, with the strike later voted the club’s best goal of the 2024-25 season by supporters.
Neto made it clear that he is happy with life in west London and believes there is more to achieve with Chelsea. “It’s an unbelievable moment,” Neto said after signing his new deal. “From when I arrived, I have always felt like the people here helped me a lot. I feel like home here; I feel like I want to achieve more things here. I have had some good moments here as a group and as an individual, and now I want to have more of those moments. I’m really excited because I think we can achieve a lot of things together.”
Chelsea Secure Pedro Neto’s Future Amid Major Squad Changes
His contract extension comes as Chelsea continue to secure the futures of several key players, with João Pedro, Reece James and Moisés Caicedo among those to have received improved terms. Neto’s decision to commit is particularly notable after Enzo Fernández pushed for a move to Manchester City, with the midfielder eventually leaving in a reported £125 million deal.
Having become a dependable attacking option across multiple positions, Neto now has the chance to build on his first two seasons at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea’s decision to tie him down until 2032 underlines the club’s belief in his importance, while the winger’s choice to stay reflects his own desire to continue playing a major role in the team’s long-term project.
