Manchester United Triggers £62.5m Cunha Release Clause

Manchester United are set to sign Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers after triggering his £62.5 million release clause, with Wolves granting permission for the deal to be finalized and for Cunha to undergo a medical. The Brazilian forward, who has had his best Premier League season scoring 15 goals, is expected to sign a five-year contract with United and take the No.10 shirt. United will pay the fee in installments over two to three years, with payments reportedly scheduled for this summer, 2026, and 2027. This transfer marks the beginning of Manchester United's summer rebuild under new manager Ruben Amorim, who is also targeting other positions amidst financial fair play constraints. Additionally, United are interested in Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap as a potential second signing, though he faces competition from clubs including Chelsea. Meanwhile, several players, including Marcus Rashford, Antony, Jadon Sancho, and others, are expected to leave Old Trafford as part of the squad overhaul.
