MANCHESTER UNITED are keen on signing Matheus Cunha, it’s been claimed.
But the Red Devils will reportedly have to raise funds for the Wolves ace by SELLING one of their established players.

Brazil international Cunha has caught the eye of several Prem sides since his move to Molineux in December 2022.
Aware of their rivals’ eagerness to sign the former Atletico Madrid man, Wolves tied him down to a bumper new deal in February.
They also increased their valuation of the 25-year-old, who the Daily Mail claim new United gaffer Ruben Amorim is keen to sign in the summer.
But they also claim Amorim will have to offload “at least one senior player” in order to match Wolves’ asking price.
Cunha has a £62.5million release clause in his new contract, which expires in the summer of 2029.
United have several players on the books they could cash in on to finance a summer swoop for Cunha, who has found the back of the net 15 times in 29 appearances this season.
Loanees Antony, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho – who are currently with Real Betis, Aston Villa and Chelsea respectively – are contenders to be sold this summer.
Amorim, who replaced Erik ten Hag at the Old Trafford helm last November, is eager to start building a team to reflect his ethos in the summer.
