"Matheus Cunha has revealed that Manchester United's turbulent start to their 2025-26 campaign has made it feel like he has been at the club for much longer. Cunha made the move to Old Trafford from Wolves over the summer for a reported transfer fee of £62.5m after a stellar campaign in the Premier League last term. In 2024-25, Cunha made 33 top-flight outings, finishing the league campaign with a team-high 15 goals."
"He also registered six assists, the second-most in the Wolves ranks. The Brazilian international created 57 chances last term, more than any of his team-mates, and had 110 shots (44 on target), more than any of the United players managed during the 2024-25 campaign. However, he is yet to get his career off the ground under Ruben Amorim. Being here now in the national team, and at United, is, without a doubt, a different level, a different moment for me as a player,"
Matheus Cunha moved from Wolves to Manchester United in the summer for a reported £62.5m after a productive 2024-25 season. He scored 15 league goals in 33 appearances, added six assists, created 57 chances and registered 110 shots (44 on target). Early in 2025-26, Cunha has struggled to replicate that form under Ruben Amorim, leading Premier League forwards in shots without a goal (15) and registering no assists. Cunha says the club's difficult start has accelerated his adaptation, and he notes his career began as a midfielder, requiring flexibility to play centre-forward, wing or 'eight'.
