“I love wolves but I’ll join Man utd on one condition” – Wolves star Matheus Cunha sends message to Man United over January transfer

Insisting that he “feels at home” at Molineux, Matheus Cunha has disassociated himself from rumors of a potential big-money move away from Wolves.

Wolves are now in 19th place in the Premier League standings after a very challenging start to the season. This weekend, they will play fellow struggling team Ipswich.

From an individual standpoint, however, Cunha has continued to improve this season, scoring seven goals and dishing out three assists in the English top division.

Among the teams closely monitoring Cunha’s play are Manchester United and Tottenham, and there has been increasing conjecture that the 25-year-old forward may soon be poised for greater things.

But Wolves director of football Matt Hobbs has reportedly ‘promised’ Gary O’Neil that Cunha will not be sold this winter, with the club determined to keep hold of their key players in the face of a possible relegation scrap.

O’Neil will no doubt be relieved to hear that Cunha feels settled and seemingly unfazed by rumours linking him with a January move.

‘I feel like it’s my home,’ Cunha told Wolves’ official website.

‘I feel the admiration of the fans, and this is something that I never believed I would get when I first came here, to a small city in England, which is completely different from my hometown – but now I feel like I’m at home.

‘The fans are unbelievable with me, with my family, and I have only great things to say about my team-mates. But to go to the stadium and to perform for them is like I feel at home.

‘I feel like I want to do everything I can to change the situation, because when you play with a little bit more passion, not as if it was just my work, then I think you put in a little bit more things that can change it.’

Cunha – who has three years remaining on his current contract with Wolves – is confident the club can turn their fortunes around and propel themselves up the table over the coming weeks.

Asked how Wolves can improve their current situation, the Brazil international replied: ‘It’s hard to say because we don’t have the honest or the correct things to say.

‘If it was that easy, we would just do it! Football is much more complex than just going out onto the pitch. When you come here and work every single day, it’s these kinds of things which are important.

‘The fans only look at what happens at the weekends, but what happens during the week is much bigger than this.

‘If we are able to manage these whole things a little bit easier, then we’ll feel better when we go into the weekend, and we’ll be able to go to the pitch and show everyone that we are happy, and then do the best thing that we can do, which is play football.’

Wolves head into Saturday’s contest at home to Ipswich on the back of three straight defeats in the Premier League and Cunha is expecting a ‘war’ against a team experiencing similar difficulties.

‘This moment is not the moment we want it to be. We want to play and then have a lot of dreams to arrive at some points that everyone thinks we have the capacity to be – but football is like this,’ he continued
