Matheus Cunha to Man United could be one of the blockbuster moves of the summer, but Wolves manager Vitor Pereira insists his star forward remains fully committed to Molineux—despite rising speculation and a standout Premier League campaign.
Cunha scored 15 goals and assisted six in a stellar season, playing a pivotal role in securing Wolves’ top-flight survival. His red-hot form has reportedly attracted Manchester United, who are said to be weighing up a summer move for the 25-year-old Brazilian. But Pereira has poured cold water on the noise, insisting he’s unaware of any negotiations and that Cunha is “happy” at the club.
With Wolves safe in 14th and a final game looming against FA Cup winners Crystal Palace, all eyes will be on whether Cunha can continue his run—or play his last game in gold and black.

Pereira made it clear that he has not received any updates regarding a move to Old Trafford and emphasized that Cunha remains focused and positive around the squad.

there's no way he's staying, unless Wolves ask 100M for him.
