Manchester United have completed their second major signing of the summer by bringing in Brazilian striker Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers in a £62.5 million deal. The 25-year-old has signed a five-year contract and will take over the club’s iconic No. 10 jersey, last worn by Marcus Rashford.
Cunha arrives at Old Trafford following an impressive season at Wolves, where he scored 17 goals and registered six assists in 36 games, playing a crucial role in their Premier League survival. His agility, creativity, and flexibility in attack made him a key target for new United manager Ruben Amorim.
The transfer has fueled speculation over the future of team captain Bruno Fernandes, who is reportedly exploring options overseas, including interest from the Saudi Pro League. United’s interest in midfielders like Barcelona’s Fermin Lopez and PSG’s Xavi Simons suggests the club may be preparing for a reshuffle in the midfield.
In addition to Cunha, United have also secured the signing of 18-year-old striker Enzo Kana Biyik from Le Havre. The teenager has agreed to a five-year deal and will initially join the club’s youth setup with hopes of advancing to the senior squad.
These signings are part of United’s broader efforts to rebuild after a disappointing season that ended with a 15th-place Premier League finish and no qualification for European competitions for the first time since 2014/15.
An official announcement regarding Cunha’s transfer is expected tomorrow as the final details are completed. Fans will be watching closely to see how these new players influence the team’s performance next season
