Man Utd's new No.10! Red Devils to activate Matheus Cunha's £62.5m release clause after Premier League season finale with Brazilian set to make Old Trafford switch next week

Cunha has been showing some top form at Wolves since he joined the club in 2023 from Atletico Madrid. This season, the Brazilian has scored 17 goals in all competitions and has been linked with a number of Premier League giants, including Manchester United and Chelsea, among others.

Manchester United have reportedly been very close to signing Cunha over the course of the last week, and Sky Sports has now reported that Manchester United are set to trigger the striker's £62.5 million ($83.4m) release clause to sign him this summer. The Red Devils have been struggling to find the proper number 10 to play alongside Bruno Fernandes in Ruben Amorim's 3-4-2-1 setup.

Despite the reports of Cunha joining United following Wolves' final Premier League game of the season, boss Vitor Pereira has continued to refuse to rule out that the Brazilian staying at Molineux Stadium past this summer.

He said, “I have the same information as you. I don’t know. I just know he’s my player. "He’s committed with the team, he’s working with happiness and we will see what happens. You must ask him. He is happy. I feel he is happy."

The Premier League season is almost over for United as they have nothing left to fight for domestically. However, they will be focusing on their Europa League final on Wednesday, May 21, as they know that new signings will be easier if they are playing European football next season.
