Manchester United Eye Cunha as Key Summer Signing

Manchester United have reportedly agreed a deal to sign Wolves forward Matheus Cunha for £62.5 million. The 25-year-old Brazilian has netted 14 goals and provided four assists in 25 Premier League starts this season. While Arsenal hesitated due to concerns over his consistency, United remain optimistic despite personal terms yet to be finalized.

For the upcoming summer transfer window, Manchester United are closing in on signing Wolves forward Matheus Cunha, following Arsenal's decision to pull back due to concerns. Cunha, a 25-year-old Brazilian international, has impressed this Premier League season with 14 goals and 4 assists in 25 starts. United are reportedly prepared to activate his £62.5 million release clause, a move that has gained momentum after Arsenal hesitated, questioning his long-term consistency and discipline.

While Goal Brasil reports an agreement has been reached, respected journalist David Ornstein clarified that personal terms are yet to be finalized. United remain optimistic, especially as Cunha is said to be keen on a move to Old Trafford. Their pursuit aligns with new manager Ruben Amorim’s priority to bolster the attack, targeting both a striker and a No. 10. Other names in contention include Antoine Semenyo and Tyler Dibling.

Arsenal, meanwhile, are deliberately avoiding high-profile bidding wars unless a target is deemed low-risk. Cunha's overperformance compared to expected goals has also been a sticking point. Despite this, United’s focus remains firm as they push for a stronger squad ahead of the next season, regardless of their European qualification outcome.
