Matheus Cunha has completed his “dream” move to Manchester United from Wolves.

United agreed a £63m deal earlier this month and Cunha has signed a five-year deal, with the option to extend by a further 12 months.

Cunha has been involved in international duty with Brazil in recent days, featuring in a goalless draw with Ecuador and then starting in the win over Paraguay.

The 26-year-old has now officially completed the switch to United and gave his first comments since putting pen to paper.

"It is hard to put into words my feelings about becoming a Manchester United player," he said.

"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."
