This is likely because of Cunha\u2019s value being known, while personal terms shouldn\u2019t be an issue with the player seemingly keen.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Romano explains that United have had fresh positive contact with Cunha\u2019s agents over the past 48 hours, and that the feeling between Cunha and Amorim is excellent. He adds that there is a \u2018great connection\u2019 between United, Amorim and Cunha.<\/p>\n<p>Matheus Cunha is a Bruno Fernandes-esque signing for Manchester United<\/p>\n<p>While Ineos are likely to also sign a handful of youngsters such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unitedinfocus.com\/tag\/chris-rigg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chris Rigg<\/a>, it is important to also add players who are ready to make an immediate impact.<\/p>\n<p>Cunha would be this player, and despite concern around his attitude off the pitch, there is no denying he is one of the best players in the Premier League, with his impact on United potentially going to be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unitedinfocus.com\/tag\/bruno-fernandes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bruno Fernandes<\/a>-like.<\/p>\n<p>When Fernandes was signed, he was the catalyst for Ole Gunnar Soslkjaer\u2019s side improving as he took no time to settle in and immediately became the star man at United.<\/p>\n<p>Cunha could have a similar impact, with his quality clear to see and that he is already shining in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p>United need multiple players like Fernandes who can take a game by the scruff of its neck \u2013 and Cunha fits the bill which makes him a must-sign for the club.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With the summer transfer window less than two months from opening, Manchester United\u2019s top targets already look set,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":40575,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8813],"tags":[748,393,4884,2465,235,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-40574","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-manchester","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-manchester","12":"tag-matheus-cunha","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114380648335462373","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40574","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40574"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40574\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40575"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40574"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40574"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40574"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
