Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has stated that Matheus Cunha would be a perfect signing for Manchester United. However, he believes that the move would force Alejandro Garnacho out of Old Trafford.
Speaking on Sky Sports, Carragher stated that Cunha is a brilliant player, and was one of the Premier League’s best performers in the 2024-25 season. He added that the Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker would fit into Ruben Amorim’s system perfectly. He said (via Mirror):
However, he warned United fans it could lead to Garnacho’s exit as the Red Devils will need to make the sale for PSR. He added:
As per reports, Manchester United have agreed a deal with Wolves for Cunha. They will pay the £62.5 million release clause over two years, as per The Athletic.
Former Manchester United full-back Gary Neville also talked about the Red Devils’ potentially signing Matheus Cunha and stated that the Brazilian forward was a smart addition. He added that the Red Devils miss a player who can drift wide and support the wing-backs. Neville said on Sky Sports (via Mirror):
Manchester United are looking to sell Alejandro Garnacho this summer. As per reports, Ruben Amorim asked the Argentine forward to find a new club after the Europa League final loss to Tottenham Hotspur.
