Ex-Premier League Striker Tips Man Utd to Sign £63m Striker Who Is "Like Ibrahimovic"
- Manchester United completed a deal in May 2025 to sign Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers for £62.5 million.
- United pursued Cunha extensively after a disastrous 2024–25 season finishing 15th, while Wolves finished 16th following a 1-1 final game draw against Brentford.
- Cunha, aged 25, played the full final match at Molineux, appeared to say goodbye to fans, and chose the No. 10 shirt for his five-year contract at Old Trafford.
- The £62.5 million fee will be paid in three installments, with the first £20.8 million payable this summer according to Fabrizio Romano and Sami Mokbel.
- Cunha’s arrival aims to strengthen United’s forward options as they plan further transfers following a post-season Asia tour and competition from Arsenal and Chelsea.
