The first summer Premier League agreement has been revealed.
Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Matheus Cunha has officially joined Manchester United.
After being made aware of Cunha’s £62.5 million release clause, Newcastle United made him their top target before the summer transfer season. He was a desirable possibility due to his flexibility and goal total since moving from Atletico Madrid to Wolves two and a half years ago.
But the 26-year-old’s determination to move to Old Trafford was clear from the beginning. With a five-year contract with an additional year’s option, the Brazilian has officially completed that move.
After turning down a proposal to spread the payment over five years, the Red Devils will instead pay Wolves £20.85 million in three installments over two years.
Matheus Cunha’s signing with Manchester United is confirmed.
According to a Manchester United announcement, “Matheus Cunha has been agreed to by Manchester United and Wolverhampton Wanderers.”
“Visas and registration are prerequisites for the Brazilian forward’s signing. In addition to his 270 club appearances and 72 goals in the English, Spanish, German, and Swiss top divisions, the 26-year-old has 13 senior caps for Brazil.
Cunha has made 92 appearances and scored 33 goals in his two and a half seasons at Wolves. Everyone at Manchester United is excited for Matheus to arrive at Old Trafford.
During the transfer window, Newcastle United wants to move swiftly.
Newcastle manager Eddie Howe still hopes to move quickly during the summer transfer window, even though he lost out on Cunha.
After last Sunday’s season-ending Premier League match against Everton, Howe stated, “Speed is key for us.” “And I’ve said that numerous times in my head.” We need to be dynamic, thus speed is essential.
Since talented athletes don’t stay around for long, we must be prepared to wrap things up as soon as possible. Honestly, that’s always been my belief and message when it comes to hiring because, although you may feel like you have time, you may rapidly realize that time has passed and that you’ve lost possibilities that will never come up again.
