Wolves forward Matheus Cunha has agreed a five-year contract with Manchester United and is set to become Ruben Amorim's first signing of the summer transfer window, according to reports.

The Brazilian striker is expected to take over Marcus Rashford's iconic No. 10 shirt at Old Trafford, with the England international reportedly on his way out after an impressive six-month loan spell at Aston Villa.

Manchester United are set to open negotiations with Wolves this week to trigger Cunha's £62.5 million release clause as they look to rebuild following a disappointing 2024/2025 campaign that saw them finish in 15th place in the Premier League.

The move represents a significant statement of intent from the United board, who have decided to keep faith with manager Ruben Amorim despite his challenging start at the club. The Portuguese coach has won just 17 out of 48 games since replacing Erik ten Hag.

Cunha's arrival signals the beginning of what is expected to be a major overhaul at Manchester United this summer, with several players potentially following Rashford through the exit door as Amorim looks to reshape the squad according to his vision.

The decision to hand Cunha the No. 10 jersey further underlines the club's commitment to moving in a new direction, effectively drawing a line under Rashford's time at his boyhood club after years of service.

Manchester United supporters will be hoping Cunha can provide the attacking spark that has been missing from their team in recent seasons, with the Brazilian known for his technical ability and eye for goal during his time at Molineux.
