According to sources from GIVEMESPORT, if Alejandro Garnacho is among the notable departures from Old Trafford this summer, Manchester United is set to target Wolverhampton Wanderers. Matheus Cunha has emerged as a key target, with plans already in place ahead of the upcoming transfer window.

Despite a recent narrow loss to Tottenham Hotspur, Red Devils head coach Ruben Amorim’s team has been proactive, recruiting players before the winter deadline. The most significant addition was Patrick Dorgu, who joined from struggling Serie A side Lecce for £30 million.

GMS sources indicate that Cunha is being considered as a potential replacement, and there is optimism that he would be keen on a transfer to a prominent Premier League club in the near future. Should Garnacho depart in the summer, Manchester United is ready to trigger Cunha’s release clause.

The Red Devils believe that by offering £62 million—after his buyout figure was revised—they could leave their domestic rivals powerless, even though the Brazilian recently signed a new long-term contract.

Manchester United has long admired Cunha and sees him as a valuable asset following his impressive performances in the Premier League with Wolves. They believe he possesses the necessary skills and style to enhance their attacking options immediately.

The 25-year-old forward garnered significant interest during the winter transfer window due to his performances in a relegation-threatened squad. Nottingham Forest even considered making a record bid as they aim for Champions League qualification, but Cunha opted to remain at Molineux.

Sources from GMS also reveal that Cunha had previously shown interest in joining other top clubs like Arsenal, insisting on a release clause in his new contract to avoid missing out on major opportunities. Consequently, key figures at Manchester United are hopeful that Cunha would be receptive to a move to Old Trafford.
