Manchester United have been heavily linked with the move for the Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker Matheus Cunha in recent weeks, and it appears that they have made a breakthrough.
According to journalist Ben Jacobs, the player has now agreed a five-year contract with the Premier League club, and Manchester United will now approach Wolves regarding the move.
The player has a £62.5 million release clause in his contract, and it remains to be seen whether the Old Trafford outfit are prepared to pay up. Jacobs further claims that the player will wear the Number 10 shirt at Manchester United when the move is complete.
