Manchester United look set to make a significant move in the upcoming transfer window, with fresh reports suggesting the club are now in pole position to land Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha.

Speculation surrounding United’s interest in the Wolves striker has been steadily growing in recent weeks, and several reported ‘clues’ have surfaced hinting at strong intent from the Old Trafford hierarchy to bring the 24-year-old to Manchester.

According to transfer insiders, United scouts have been regularly monitoring Cunha’s performances, and sources close to the player claim informal talks have already taken place. The Brazilian has been one of Wolves’ standout performers this season, impressing with his versatility, sharp movement, and finishing ability.

“Manchester United appear to be front-runners in the pursuit of Matheus Cunha,” one source noted, adding that the club sees him as an ideal addition to strengthen their attacking options, especially amid ongoing uncertainty surrounding the futures of several current forwards.

Adding fuel to the fire, Cunha recently liked a social media post linking him to United, sparking excitement among fans and further hinting at a possible summer switch.

While no official bid has been submitted yet, insiders suggest that United could open formal negotiations in the coming weeks as part of their summer rebuilding plans under Erik ten Hag.

If completed, Cunha’s arrival would offer United a dynamic and versatile attacker capable of playing across the front line — and inject fresh energy into a squad that’s been criticized for lacking cutting edge in attack this season.

One to watch closely as the transfer window approaches.
