Manchester United have been granted permission by Wolves to finalise a deal to sign Matheus Cunha, the PA news agency understands.
The 26-year-old has been a key target for the Red Devils as Ruben Amorim looks to reshape the team on the back of the club’s worst season in 51 years.
United had sought to negotiate with Wolves over the terms of Cunha’s deal but have now met the Brazil international’s £62.5million release clause and been given permission to start a medical.
