The promising teenager was handed his first-team debut for Eddie Howe's side during a pre-season friendly against Celtic, introduced from the substitutes' bench in the closing stages at Celtic Park.

Neave would go on to make his UEFA Champions League debut in February 2026, featuring in a 6–1 win over Qarabağ FK in the Champions League. On the final game of the 25/26 campaign, the striker made his Premier League debut when coming off the bench against Fulham at Craven Cottage.
