It’s now official: Matheus Cunha is a Red Devil. Manchester United have signed the Brazilian striker from Wolverhampton for £62.5 million — a major deal for the summer transfer window.
With 17 goals in 36 matches this season, Cunha stood out at Wolves, earning the attention of United’s recruitment team. His transfer marks the biggest sale in Wolves’ history, having signed him from Atlético Madrid last year for around £42 million.
A major addition for United
At 26, Cunha is entering the prime of his career. His versatility and clinical finishing make him a key reinforcement for Manchester United, who are looking to add consistency up front. The club is confident the Brazilian can deliver at the very highest level.
Cunha has signed a five-year contract, with the option to extend for a sixth. He is expected to wear the iconic number 10 shirt, sparking speculation about Marcus Rashford’s future.
This is a bold move from United as they look to bounce back after a challenging Premier League season. Cunha is expected to be a cornerstone of the team under new manager Rúben Amorim.
