When Matheus Cunha made the move from Atletico Madrid to Wolverhampton Wanderers, little did anyone expect just how vital he would become in their battle to avoid relegation from the Premier League.
Despite Wolves’ struggles, the 27-year-old has shone brightly on the field, silencing critics game after game with his outstanding performances. With 10 goal involvements in just 12 league matches this season, Cunha continues to prove his worth, most recently scoring two goals and providing an assist in Wolves’ 4-1 victory over Fulham.
While Cunha’s impact on the team is undeniable, the possibility of him leaving in the January transfer window remains a concern for the club. Amidst interest from clubs like Manchester United, who have been tracking him since his Atletico Madrid days, the Brazilian forward remains focused on his current club, expressing gratitude for the links to top clubs like United.
Despite being touted as a potential replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo in the past, Cunha remains fully committed to Wolves, eager to continue contributing to the team’s success. His versatility and recent stellar performances have even raised calls for his inclusion in the Brazilian national team, as the Selecao struggle to find attacking prowess in World Cup qualifying matches.
Whether Cunha’s future lies at Old Trafford or on the international stage remains to be seen, but one thing is certain – his impact at Wolves has been nothing short of remarkable, and his presence will be sorely missed if he chooses to move on in the future.
