Wolves’ Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha is having a decent Premier League season so far. Cunha is turning out to be a difference-maker for his team. He is one of the key reasons why Wolves look more likely and so to survive the relegation battle.
The 25-year-old has so far 15 goals and 6 assists to his name in the 2024-2025 EPL season. Cunha’s potential exit from Wolves in the upcoming summer transfer window and his admirers have been subjects of discussion lately.
Reports in the English Media point out that Wolves’ league rival Arsenal currently looks like a potential destination for Matheus Cunha this summer.
Cunha has been linked with a move to Arsenal in the recent past as well. However, with the Brazilian forward inching towards the goal of Premier League safety for Wolves, he is more likely to make a switch this summer.
Is Arsenal a viable destination for Matheus Cunha?
Many English football Pundits held that the best piece of business Wolves did in the last transfer window was being able to keep Cunha. The Old Gold provided Matheus Cunha with a new contract. There is reportedly a release clause of around £62.5 million for him.
Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal are likely to miss out on the Premier League title again this season. Liverpool currently sits at the top of the standings with a significant point gap from the second-place Gunners. The upcoming summer transfer window might turn out to be a crucial one for the North London-based side.
Even though Arsenal have a similar profile player in Martin Odegaard, who is one of the first names on the team sheet, Cunha can be a prolific signing for them.
In addition to playing in a number 10’s role of a playmaker, the Brazilian offers versatility as he can play wide as well. Cunha offers that ball-carrying threat, with speed and link-up ability on transition. He is someone who can hold the ball when required, as well. The 25-year-old can pitch in as a second striker if needed.
Cunha is also on the radar of Man United, Tottenham, and Nottingham Forest
Arsenal might have to fight it out in the upcoming summer transfer window if they want to sign Matheus Cunha. Reports state that other Premier League clubs, in the form of Man United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Nottingham Forest, are also keeping a close tab on the player.
According to GiveMeSport, Ruben Amorim and Man United are sizing up their options in the upcoming window. The Red Devils have one eye on Wolves’ Matheus Cunha.
Whenever Cunha has played against the Red Devils in the Premier League, he has managed to impress. This might also be one of the reasons United’s hierarchy deems him a potential target.
Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur and Nottingham Forest are also said to be viable candidates for potentially landing Cunha this summer. However, it can be predicted that a Champions League qualification for Nuno Espirito Santo’s managed Nottingham Forest could bolster their hope of adding the current Wolves forward to their roster.
