Man United ‘offer’ revealed as Amorim eyes ‘priority’ signing from PL club; Romano confirms star ‘will leave’

According to reports, Man Utd manager Ruben Amorim is adamant about bringing Matheus Cunha, a forward for Wolves, to Old Trafford during the January transfer window.

After losing 2-0 to Wolves on Boxing Day, Amorim’s team is currently 14th in the Premier League, and the Red Devils are having a miserable season.

Man Utd is 20 points behind leaders Liverpool, who also have a game in hand, and has only won six of their 18 Premier League games this season.

In a few days, the January transfer market will open, and Amorim is hoping that the Manchester United board will be able to give him reinforcements to aid his struggling side.
One player who impressed against the Red Devils on Boxing Day was Wolves attacker Cunha and now reports in Spain claim that Amorim wants to ‘turn [the] Premier League on its head’ with the ‘surprise signing’ of the Brazilian.

Man Utd are ‘preparing a strategic move in the winter transfer market’ for the Premier League star with Amorim making the former Atletico Madrid man his ‘top target’ for January.

Amorim sees Cunha ‘as the key piece to reinforce’ his side with the Man Utd boss now ‘looking for players who not only provide goals, but also dynamism, versatility and tactical adaptability’.

Man Utd are ‘willing to lead the race to get his services’ and their ‘offer could be around a considerable figure, possibly close to 60-70 million euros’.

Cunha is ‘an absolute priority for the winter transfer market’ for Amorim and the Man Utd boss sees the Brazilian ‘as a central piece of the long-term project at Old Trafford’.

Romano told GiveMeSport: “The situation is quite similar also for Christian Eriksen. Manchester United have already decided internally that his contract will not be extended and that the Danish midfielder will leave on a free transfer in the summer – only a good proposal could change the story and see him leave in January.

“Real Betis were keen on signing Eriksen at the end of the summer window, but they were not able to agree on terms on both club and player side. In case a good club appears with a good proposal for the player, United could be open to facilitating his exit and move on from a signing strongly wanted by previous manager Erik ten Hag. However, Amorim’s vision goes in a different direction, as he wants intensity everywhere, especially in the midfield.

“Despite links with a potential exit, Man United are not looking at solutions for Lisandro Martinez or Andre Onana – at least for January – and the situation is completely under control with both players and there are no discussions ongoing with any club for this duo.
