Matheus Cunha breaks silence on Man Utd injury blow after withdrawing from latest Brazil squad

Amorim was forced to replace Cunha just after the half-hour mark during the Burnley clash as the Brazilian forward limped off injured. He subsequently withdrew from the Selecao squad for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers, as he decided to rest for the next two weeks to recover quickly. 

It has been suggested that Cunha could be facing a long spell out, but the 26-year-old has now attempted to allay those fears in a post to his followers on social media.

Taking to Instagram, Cunha shared a series of photographs to showcase his time at Old Trafford so far and wrote in the caption: "What an incredible environment, it’s great to be here. I’ll be back soon, always with joy and gratitude. Thanks for all the messages."

The Red Devils will hope that their star signing recovers quickly during the international break and returns to the field as early as possible. Amorim's side will be back in action on September 14 as they face rivals Manchester City in a crucial Premier League derby clash.
