Manchester United continues with a movement for Wolves Vooruit Matheus Cunha, who has a £ 62.5 million release clause and recently attracted interest from Premier League rivals
Premier League icon Alan Shearer claims that Matheus Cunha will not make a difference at Manchester United – unless he is followed by 'six or seven' more signing sessions. Cunha, 25, is high on United's summer list, despite signing a new contract of four and a half years with Wolves in February.
Written in that deal is a release clause that is considered £ 62.5 million, a fee that Chiefs Old Trafford believe that they can afford. Brazilian attacker Cunha recently expressed his wish to leave Wolves after the interest of Arsenal and Nottingham Forest in the transfer star of January, and he was influential during Sunday's 1-0 victory against United.
United is planning to sell Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Antony and Tyrell Malacia, all lent this season to rebuild Ruben Amorim's team. And that is exactly what Shearer feels that United needs to make Cunha thrive.
“[He] Wouldn't make a difference for Man United – they need another six or seven players who have explained the top goalscorer of the Premier League of all time on top. ” He is just one of the players, when it comes to happen, but yes, I understand and I understand “
Shearer continued to say: “He will be a welcome addition, absolutely. I don't know what to pay for him. I suspect it is a pretty good amount. Does he have talent? Absolutely. Is he a bit a maverick? Yes, but you get that with the most good players – they have a lead on them and a side that may not like some people.”
United focuses on Cunha, who would probably play in one of the number 10 positions in the Amorim system, plus a striker. Liam Delap is considered and Shearer is a big fan of the 22-year-old, who is expected to be available for £ 30 million if Ipswich is degraded.
“They need a top class Center-Forward such as Delap, but they also need someone like Cunha,” the former striker in Newcastle told Betfair. “They also need defensive players – they need reinforcements everywhere around the field.

“Whether they can spend and spend so much, I don't know. I suspect this can depend on whether they will come in the Champions League or not. I have read that there is about a release clause of £ 30 million for Liam Delap, which means that someone gets a real bargain in it.
“He will have a lot of options, Will. If you look at all the clubs that need a center forward in the Premier League – Arsenal, Chelsea, Man United, Liverpool, Spurs – there will be huge clubs that watch Delap. There is no doubt, if it is that amount, then he will have major options.”
