🚨 £62M Move Incoming? Man Utd Set to Activate Matheus Cunha’s Clause if Garnacho Departs! 😱
Manchester United Targets Wolves’ Matheus Cunha as Possible Garnacho Replacement
Manchester United is reportedly eyeing Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Matheus Cunha as a potential replacement for Alejandro Garnacho if the young Argentine leaves Old Trafford this summer. According to GIVEMESPORT, the Red Devils are prepared to activate Cunha’s £62 million release clause, which was set following his contract renewal at Wolves.
The 25-year-old Brazilian has been a standout performer for Wolves, and there is growing confidence within United that he would be open to a move to one of the Premier League’s elite clubs. His versatility and attacking prowess have kept him on United’s radar for some time, and his performances, despite playing for a struggling Wolves side, have only strengthened his reputation.
Why United Wants Cunha
Garnacho’s potential departure would leave a significant gap in Manchester United’s attacking lineup, making Cunha an ideal candidate to step in. The Brazilian forward was already a sought-after name during the winter transfer window, with clubs like Nottingham Forest considering a record bid. However, he chose to remain at Molineux.
Cunha’s ambition to play for a top club is well known. Sources indicate that he previously showed interest in joining a club like Arsenal, which is why he included a release clause in his new contract with Wolves—to keep his options open for big opportunities.
United’s Transfer Window Plans
Manchester United is navigating a difficult season, currently sitting 15th in the Premier League standings. Managerial changes, including Erik ten Hag’s departure in October 2024 and Ruben Amorim’s appointment in November 2024, have not yet resulted in a significant turnaround.
With the summer transfer window approaching, United is determined to reinforce their squad, and signing Cunha could be a crucial step in strengthening their attack. If Garnacho leaves, the club is expected to act swiftly to secure Cunha’s services, ensuring they maintain depth and quality in thei
r forward line.
