Man United completed £ 62.5 million signing of Matheus Cunha with Brazilian star who will arrive the first summer of Ruben Amorim after horror season

Manchester United has officially completed the signing of Matheus Cunha.

The Brazil attacker has completed his £ 62.5 million relocation WolvesSubject to visa and registration, and a statement was released on Sunday afternoon.

Cunha, 28, spent his medical last week and is the first declaration of intent from United in a big summer if they want to rebuild under Ruben Amorim.

Cunha yielded 33 times in 92 performances for wolves after initially becoming a member of Atletico Madrid on loan in January 2023.

At the end of that season he permanently wrote a deal for a maximum of 40 million euros (£ 35 million).

A short statement from United was: ‘Manchester United has reached agreement with Wolverhampton Wanderers for the signing of Matheus Cunha.

‘The signing of the Brazilian attacker is subject to visa and registration. The 26-year-old has 13 senior caps for Brazil and made 270 performances in his club career and scored 72 goals in the English, Spanish, German and Swiss top flights.

‘During two and a half seasons at Wolves, Cunha scored 33 goals in 92 performances.

“Everyone at Manchester United is looking forward to welcoming Matheus in Old Trafford.”

It is assumed that United Wolves will pay in three episodes of £ 20.85 million for two years after the Molineux club has rejected an offer to wickle the payment for five years.

The Red Devils had already agreed personal conditions with the Brazilian international and he could now receive the NO 10 shirt from Marcus Rashford.

He was seen in the Lowry Hotel in Manchester, only a few hours before his signing was officially announced and was accompanied by his pregnant wife, Gabriela.

Cunha enjoyed an impressive individual campaign in the Midlands, scored 15 goals and gave six assists in 33 Premier League appearance.

His total was considerably higher than any United player who was managed in the competition, with Bruno Fernandes And Amad Diallo ending as joint top scorers, each with eight.

The 25-year-old was heavily connected to a move to Old Trafford throughout the season, despite signing a new four-year-old deal with Wolves in February.

“I made it clear that I have to take the next step,” Cunha said in March. ‘I want to fight for titles, for great things. I have potential. ‘

Amorim is desperate to strengthen United’s attack with Rasmus Hojlund Misfiring, while Alejandro Garnacho, Marcus Rashford, Antony and Jadon Sancho will leave.

United scored only 44 league goals, their lowest count ever in the Premier League era.

But the Portuguese boss does not have a large transfer fund and will discharge players to free cash, with most of his team available for the right prize. Indeed, their budget is supposed to be around £ 125 million plus the money that the club can collect.

They want another striker, midfielder and no. 10, with Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford and Liam Delap from Ipswich for a movement. Delap, however, sees it on his way to Chelsea.

Bee boss Thomas Frank admitted that Brentford will listen to offers for Mbuemo, 25, which would cost around £ 50 million plus add-ons.

After the game he wrote: ‘Wolves, what can I tell you?

“What an incredible season. We did not come where you deserve to be, but we have done everything to make you proud. I love these guys.

‘It was individually the best season of my life. All this was only possible because of all the dedication and love I have for this club.

‘I became the Brazilian with the most goals in a Premier League season, together with @roberto_firmino and @gabriel.martinelli.

‘I made mistakes and have things good, but always because I have lived this club so much. All I ever wanted was to do the impossible for wolves. Another is over.

“And thanks all for all affection.”

Cunha’s Brazilian teammates Joao Gomes and Andre revealed on social media that they had been gifted Rolex watches from the departing attacker.

Cunha joined Wolves from Atletico Madrid in January 2023 and scored an impressive 33 goals in 92 performances for the club.
