Manchester United Agree Stunning Deal for Matheus Cunha

Manchester United have reached an agreement to sign Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha from Wolves. He is set to sign a contract until June 2030, with an option for another year. Wolves will receive £62.5 million, paid in installments.

WHAT HAPPENED?

After weeks of talks, all parties finally came to an agreement. Cunha will join United, and they’ve activated his £62.5 million clause. The fee will be paid in installments, helping United manage spending. Cunha’s deal will run until 2030, with an option to extend to 2031. Final checks and paperwork are expected to be done next week, marking United’s first big signing of the summer window.

CUNHA’S IMPACT AND TEAM CONTEXT

Cunha performed well for Wolves in the 2024/25 Premier League season, scoring 12 goals and providing 7 assists in 33 games. His performances attracted several top teams, but United acted quickly to secure him. United finished sixth in the 2024/25 season, missing out on Champions League spots and ending six points behind fifth-place Tottenham. With new management, United look to rebuild, and Cunha’s arrival is seen as a major step in making their attack stronger.

WHAT COMES NEXT?

The formal signing will happen next week, with a medical checkup and contract signing expected. Cunha is likely to be introduced as a United player before pre-season. Manchester United will open their 2025/26 Premier League campaign with renewed hope, aiming to close the gap to the top four. Wolves lose a key player and will look to invest the money. Cunha joins a club eager for success, and fans will expect him to score as United prepare for the new season.
