Premier League icon Shaka Hislop has hailed Chelsea's summer signing as one of the best players this season.

Former West Ham United goalkeeper, Shaka Hislop, has hailed Chelsea's Pedro Neto as one of the Premier League's best signings this season.

Neto joined Chelsea from Wolves for £54 million in the summer, and after initially setting for substitute appearances, the 24-year-old has made the left-wing his own.

He has grown from strength to strength in recent weeks and produced a fine all-round performance against Arsenal, including a brilliantly taken goal.

Hislop praised Neto's impact on ESPN FC, saying:

"Well, he cost Chelsea quite a bit of money. And you knew the player who was coming from Wolves.

"I just think he gives them a different dynamic in those wide areas. Every time he comes off the bench he changes the game for Chelsea."

He further emphasized Neto's significance in Chelsea's strong start to the season:

"I think he has been one of Chelsea's best signings this season in what has been a very good start to the campaign for them."
