Newcastle United are reportedly interested in signing 25-year-old Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker Matheus Cunha this summer.
According to a report from TEAMtalk, Newcastle United will compete with Liverpool in the race to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers talisman Matheus Cunha in the summer transfer window.
The 25-year-old has done quite well this season, and he has 19 goal contributions in all competitions. He could transform Newcastle United in the final third he joins the club. The Magpies are overly dependent on Anthony Gordon and Alexander Isak. They could certainly use more quality and depth in the attack.
It will be interesting to see if Newcastle United can win the race for his signature amid his links with several Premier League bigwigs. The Tyneside outfit are one of the wealthiest clubs in the country, and they have the financial resources to get the deal across the line.
The opportunity to play for Newcastle United could be quite attractive for the South American forward as well. Eddie Howe’s team will likely be able to provide him with European football next season, and they have a talented squad and an ambitious project as well.
Similarly, Liverpool will be an attractive destination for the player. They need to replace players like Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez in the summer, and Cunha would be the ideal acquisition. The player is entering the peak years of his career, and he will want to compete at the highest level and win major trophies. Liverpool have a proven track record of fighting for major trophies regularly, and they could help the Brazilian fulfil his ambitions.
Cunha will end up at a big club soon
Wolves are unlikely to let the Brazilian international leave for cheap, and they should demand a premium to part ways with him in the summer transfer windwo. It will be interesting to see if Newcastle United and Liverpool are willing to pay up.
The Brazilian has been linked with other English clubs as well, and it remains to be seen where he ends up eventually. The 25-year-old has proven himself in the Premier League with Wolves, and there is no doubt that he is good enough to play for the biggest clubs in the country. He could make a big difference for Newcastle United and Liverpool in the final third.
