Matheus Cunha has dropped a telling statement of intent after he sat down with Manchester United’s club media for his first interview with the Red Devils.
Ruben Amorim added Matheus Cunha to the ranks of his Manchester United first-team squad as his first major summer signing of the transfer window.
United landed Cunha from Wolves in June after the Red Devils triggered the £62.5m release clause in the Brazilian forward’s contract at the Molineux.

The Red Devils announced the deal earlier this month, but Cunha’s transfer to United was dependent on his visa approval and registration procedures.
United confirmed the signing of Cunha on Thursday and the ex-Wolves ace inked a five-year deal with the Red Devils, with an option to extend for another year.
Cunha, who has been on international duty with Brazil for the World Cup qualifiers, was in Manchester over the weekend and completed his medical with the club.
