Pedro Neto spoke with journalists Saturday, June 27, 2026. He expressed pride. He claimed he travels the same route as Portuguese legends like Cristiano Ronaldo and Eusebio. Neto added that those names establish a lofty benchmark and push him to train daily.
When Ronaldo scored in a latest match, Neto joked that fans might start voting for him instead. He said he trusts Ronaldo fully and relishes the light‑handed banter. The remarks arrived while Portugal readies itself for its next World Cup qualifier.
