BREAKING: Manchester United Sign Matheus Cunha for £62.5M; Takes No. 10 Shirt Amid Bruno Fernandes Uncertainty
By elvisoscaryoung090@gmail.com – May 27, 2025
Manchester United have completed their second major summer signing, bringing in Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers in a deal worth £62.5 million. The 25-year-old has signed a five-year contract and will take over the famous No. 10 shirt, last worn by Marcus Rashford.
Cunha’s arrival follows an impressive season at Wolves, where he scored 17 goals and made six assists across 36 Premier League games, playing a crucial role in helping the club avoid relegation. His energy, creativity, and adaptability in attack have made him a key target for new United manager Ruben Amorim.
The signing has fueled speculation about the future of club captain Bruno Fernandes. Reports suggest Fernandes is weighing his options amid growing interest from foreign clubs, including teams in the Saudi Pro League. United’s reported interest in midfielders such as Fermin Lopez (Barcelona) and Xavi Simons (PSG) signals a potential reshuffle in the squad.
In addition to Cunha, United have also brought in 18-year-old striker Enzo Kana Biyik from Le Havre. He has signed a five-year deal and will join the youth ranks, with hopes of progressing to the senior team.
These signings reflect Manchester United’s intent to rebuild following a disappointing campaign that saw them finish 15th in the Premier League and miss out on European competition for the first time since 2014/15.
The club is expected to officially confirm Cunha’s arrival tomorrow, once all formalities are completed. Fans are hopeful the new additions can help turn things around in the upcoming season.
