West Bromwich Albion: Manchester United’s new signing Matheus Cunha, while sharing how it feels to join the club, revealed that when he used to play on the gravel pitches back home in Brazil, he would imagine himself playing for United.
Cunha completed a permanent move to Manchester United for a club-record fee last month, following two-and-a-half years at Wolves, on a five-year contract, with an option to extend by a further year. The Brazilian finished his Wolves career with 33 goals in 92 appearances and was recently crowned Wolves Player of the Season following an impressive campaign but now moves on for a fresh challenge.
“It is hard to find words to describe this moment. It is a dream come true. Sometimes, it is difficult to believe I am really here. This club has always meant something special to me. There is a funny story — back home in Brazil, we could only watch the Premier League at my grandma’s house because neither, my house nor my cousins had the channel. So, every weekend, we would plan to watch matches at her place.
