Enzo Maresca allows Pedro Neto to decide on playing in the Club World Cup quarter-final after Diogo Jota's death in a car crash. Neto and Jota played together at Wolves and were international team-mates. Neto has performed well recently, scoring in three straight matches. Maresca emphasizes support for Neto during this challenging time, stating it’s entirely Neto’s choice to play, reassuring him that any decision made will be respected and supported by the team.
"He's very sad. More than sad, but we are also close to Pedro to support him in this moment. It's completely Pedro's decision (if he wants to play)."
"Whatever decision he takes, it is the correct one, and we are going to support him in any case, so it doesn't matter if he is on the pitch."
