Matheus Cunha says his move to Manchester United is a "dream" after finalising his transfer from Wolves on Thursday.
The Brazilian has signed a five-year contract through to June 2030, with the option of an additional year.
United announced they had reached an agreement with Wolves at the start of June, which was subject to visa and registration, after they had reportedly triggered a £62.5m release clause.
"It is hard to put into words my feelings about becoming a Manchester United player," Cunha told the club's media channels.
"Ever since I was a child in Brazil watching Premier League games on TV at my grandmother's house, United was my favourite English team, and I dreamed of wearing the red shirt. I want to thank my family and everyone who has helped me make that dream a reality.
"I can't wait for the start of pre-season to get to know my team-mates and prepare for the season ahead. All my focus is now on working hard to become a valuable part of the team and helping get this club back to the top."
In 2024-25, the 26-year-old made 33 Premier League appearances, finishing the league campaign with a team-high 15 goals. He also registered six assists, the second-most in the Wolves ranks.
Cunha also created 57 chances, more than any of his team-mates, and had 110 shots (44 on target), more than any of the United players managed.
Overall, Cunha scored 33 goals in 92 appearances across all competitions in his two seasons with Wolves.
United are looking to improve after recording their worst-ever Premier League finish of 15th. They also scored just 44 goals in 38 league games, with only Everton (42), Ipswich Town (36), Leicester City (33) and Southampton (26) scoring fewer.

Have the devil on are shirt and are nicknamed the red devils, we made many comebacks and won cups in are bad years this took luck many many times, thought the devil brings you everything but luck 🤔 or is it that he ain't real and you spiritual believers are just nuts? "aw but your club finished 15th, that's the devil's work" 🙄, no no we just played absolutely terrible and the truth revealed itself they just are bad players. It's called getting a slap of reality. Wait and see him be better than Sancho, Rashford and Antony put together.
All of the above 🤣

U know devil power never lasts forever, that’s what happening to your so-call red Devil. In Epl we have Jesus, Gabriel n Mohammed name there. So your red devil doesn’t like those names. Check am 😂
We lost are whole team, started again and dominated English football, we won cups and have the best comebacks in Premier league history. In are bad years we still won more cups than majority of England, with are worse ever united team (which was last season) we finished 15th and got to a European final which majority of England never done, you could say this was luck, the devil don't bring you luck 😂 Watch and if we do good next season or win any sort of silver you will be like "just wait, just wait the devil has something in store for you all" then when finally something does happen it will be "I told you so" when in reality it's just football and anything can happen. 😂

Don’t worry it was ( Devil 👹 ) calling. If you’re a spiritual believer. That so-call club won’t work for you. Unless you’re a spiritual person… A club name after devil 😈. Why people going in there. 🤷🏽♂️

Of course South American Players and dreams of playing for their favorite clubs or rather clubs that pay them well 😂😂😂 Alexis once had that dream also, he’s South American, was handsomely paid at MAN UTD and he flopped big time, biggest flop in the club’s history…

Every player when they sign up with new team always says it dream came through but once the have problem with system and the formation which doesn't work for him. He will start to complaint like wise Anthony. Anthony wads doing well at Ajax but it's career tarnished choo8 wrong option. So it could happen to Cunha.. Wait and see his progress. He his very good player but he doesn't suite to Man Utd.

Then you have useless dreams
It's not a useless dream it's his choice as you saw Luis Suarez as talented as he was when he came to Liverpool he said it's my dream to play for Liverpool, Luis Suarez was good and spent 3 to 4 years at Liverpool and he only won Carabao cup. When he left for Barcelona he won a Champions League, LaLiga and Copa Del Rey (treble in 2015) with them. You mean Suarez going to Liverpool was a useless dream.
