According to a report by Give Me Sport, Matheus Cunha is the subject of interest from Manchester United. Arsenal and Newcastle United are also keen on signing the Wolverhampton Wanderers forward in the summer transfer window. However, the Red Devils are increasingly confident of beating the competition to the Brazilian international, who will cost around £62.5 million.
Matheus Cunha has resurrected his stuttering fortunes since joining Wolverhampton Wanderers from Atletico Madrid. The South American attacker initially joined the Black Country outfit on loan in January 2023 before completing a permanent move in the subsequent summer transfer window. Since then, he has come leaps and bounds, establishing himself as one of the best attackers in the Premier League.
The 25-year-old has been exceptional in the 2024/25 campaign thus far, contributing to 20 goals in 31 appearances across all competitions by finding the back of the net 16 times and providing four assists. Meanwhile, Cunha’s exploits have not gone unnoticed, alerting hihg-profile clubs like Arsenal, Newcastle United, and Manchester United.
While recent reports have claimed that Arsenal might have developed concerns about pursuing the Brazilian international due to his volatile temperament. Nevertheless, the Gunners remain interested in Cunha, with a summer move possible due to the inconsistencies of Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus.
Meanwhile, Newcastle United’s interest in Matheus Cunha is understandable. Callum Wilson has entered the final few months of his contract and will likely depart from St. James’ Park as a free agent in the summer transfer window. So, the Magpies need a replacement, with the versatile Cunha emerging as a viable target.
