Manchester United have officially agreed to sign Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha from Wolves in a deal worth £67 million. The 25-year-old has already agreed to personal terms on a contract running until June 2030, with the transfer fee to be paid in three installments — a strategic move to stay within Financial Fair Play limits.
Cunha, who scored 12 goals in the Premier League last season, is set to undergo medical tests next week and will join United’s squad for pre-season once all documents are finalized. Known for his pace, creativity, and ability to play across the front line, he offers tactical versatility that Erik ten Hag (or his potential successor) will welcome.
This marks the first major signing of the summer under the new INEOS-led leadership, signaling intent to rebuild and strengthen United’s attack. Cunha is expected to ease the goalscoring pressure on Rasmus Højlund and help reshape United’s offensive dynamics.
With speculation around the futures of Jadon Sancho, Mason Greenwood, and Antony, Cunha’s arrival could trigger further changes in the squad.
