Cunha has been reborn as the core of Wolverhampton's offense by showing outstanding performance this season. In the 2023-2024 season, Cunha led the Wolverhampton offense with Hwang Hee-chan, who scored 12 goals in the league alone. He scored the most offensive points in his team with 14 goals and eight assists in 36 games. This season, along with Hwang Hee-chan's disappointing slump, he has been reborn as the team's unrivaled ace. He showed great performance in 31 games with 15 goals and four assists.
EPL big clubs, which paid attention to Cunha's performance, were constantly moving to recruit Cunha, and Manchester United, Arsenal, and Newcastle were listed as transfer rumors. Tottenham was one of them. Tottenham is reportedly considering several candidates for recruitment to reorganize its offense after this season. In addition to Cunha, Antoine Semeno and Mohamed Kudus are already mentioned as candidates for recruitment.
Tottenham said it would not spare a transfer fee to recruit Cunha. Tottenham's highest transfer fee is 65 million pounds (about 120 billion won) recorded when Dominic Solanke was recruited from Bournemouth last summer. It is known that 75 million pounds (about 140 billion won) can be invested to recruit Cunha.

However, Manchester United's participation in the war turned the situation upside down. Cunha did not hide his desire to move to Manchester United immediately, along with Manchester United's interest. BBC's Sami Mokbel, a British public broadcaster with outstanding public confidence, said 'Manchester United is interested in recruiting Cunha'Manchester United is expected to leave Wolverhampton after this season. According to the news, Kunae is on the Manchester United recruitment list. Manchester United will have to compete with several English Premier League (EPL) clubs over Cunha, he said.
As the agreement between Manchester United and Cunha approaches, Tottenham and other clubs who were aiming to recruit Cunha are expected to face setbacks. Manchester United is known to have started to finish quickly to confirm the recruitment of Cunha, and if Cunha joins, it is expected to build a stronger offense than this season.
Meanwhile, Cunha was recently spotted with Manchester United manager Hoobeng Amorim during half-time in a match against Manchester United, fueling rumors of a transfer to Manchester United. England's Daily Mail said: "'Manchester United fans were convinced that Amorim signed Matheus Cunha against Wolverhampton. 'Amorim was seen putting his arm around Cunha's shoulder at half-time,' he said.
