Arsenal have expressed interest in acquiring the Wolves forward this month, however, a deal appears uncertain as Wolves have set a high fee to part with their star player.
Wolverhampton Wanderers have set a substantial asking price for their talented Brazilian forward, Matheus Cunha, as they look to fend off potential suitors. According to reports from Standard Sport, Wolves are demanding an astronomical fee of £60 million for the 23-year-old striker. This move comes as the club aims to secure Cunha’s long-term future at Molineux and build an ambitious sporting project around him.
Cunha, who joined Wolves from Atlético Madrid in January 2023, has quickly become a key player for the team. His pace, dribbling skills, and eye for goal have made him a valuable asset, and his performances have caught the attention of several top clubs. Earlier this month, reports suggested that Matheus Cunha was close to finalizing a new contract with Wolves. However, recent indications reveal that the forward is now considering a move to a different club. A price tag of £60 million has been mentioned.
Despite the high asking price, Wolves are determined to keep Cunha and deter potential buyers. The club’s decision to set such a high price reflects their confidence in Cunha’s potential and their commitment to building a competitive team in the Premier League.While the £60 million figure may be a deterrent for most clubs, it has not stopped interest from top teams like Arsenal, Chelsea, Nottingham Forest, and Tottenham. However, Wolves manager Vitor Pereira has stated that Cunha is not for sale this month and is committed to the club.
It is unclear if any team will pay Wolves’ asking price for Cunha as the transfer window goes on. For now, the Brazilian forward is set to continue his development at Molineux, with Wolves hoping to secure his long-term future at the club.
