Matheus Cunha has been on fire for Wolves this season, scoring an impressive 10 goals in the Premier League. However, his stellar performance has caught the attention of top clubs like Arsenal and Manchester United, who are eyeing him for a potential move in the upcoming January transfer window.
Wolves manager Vitor Pereira is hopeful that the club can hold onto Cunha despite the interest from other teams. After all, the Brazilian forward has been the standout performer for Wolves this season, contributing not just goals, but also four assists. In fact, he was named the Player of the Match in their recent 2-0 victory against Manchester United on Boxing Day.
It has been reported that Arsenal have been monitoring Cunha closely, with manager Mikel Arteta looking to strengthen their attacking options. But it's not just the Gunners who are interested in the 25-year-old. Manchester United have also been linked with him, especially after his impressive display against them in their recent match.
Pereira, who took over as Wolves' manager earlier this month, has been impressed with Cunha's abilities and believes he has the potential to become one of the best players in the Premier League. However, he is also keen for the Brazilian to remain at the club and continue his impressive form.
"In my opinion, he's a player who can reach high standards in this league," Pereira told Amazon Prime. When asked about the possibility of Cunha leaving for another club, he added, "I hope not, I hope not because we need him."
Cunha's teammate Jorgen Strand Larsen, who is on loan from Celta Vigo, also emphasized the importance of keeping Cunha at Wolves. He admires the Brazilian's skills and constantly encourages him on the field.
"I tell him during the game how good he is every time because he needs to hear that," said Strand Larsen after their win against United. "He's an amazing player, one of the best I've ever played with. I hope we can keep hold of him for a long time."
The Norwegian striker also praised Cunha's confidence and their good relationship on and off the field. He sees himself as the "big man" with the ball on his chest, while Cunha brings the "Brazilian magic" to the team.
"He's an amazing guy and an amazing football player," added Strand Larsen. With such high praise from his teammates, it's no wonder Wolves are determined to keep Cunha at the club and continue their success with him in the team.
