Wolves' Vitor Pereira criticizes Matheus Cunha amid Arsenal interest

Wolves forward Matheus Cunha faced criticism from manager Vitor Pereira following a lackluster performance in a 3-1 defeat to Chelsea, which left the team struggling above the relegation zone. Pereira specifically noted Cunha's poor body language, stating that as captain, he should be helping the team rather than exhibiting frustration. The manager's comments come amid speculation that Cunha, who has been linked with a move to Arsenal, is distracted by transfer rumors. Cunha vehemently denied accusations of ignoring fans after the match, claiming he acknowledged them before heading to the tunnel. Reports indicate that negotiations for a new contract for Cunha have stalled, potentially complicating his future at Wolves as Arsenal seeks reinforcements for their squad. Pereira emphasized that while he understands players may be affected by transfer speculation, Cunha needs to focus on his performance to help the team.
