Manchester United have been given the green light to go ahead and complete a move for one of their priority transfer targets, who is said to “love” the club.
Interest in Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker Matheus Cunha from Man Utd has built rapidly over the course of the last month, and the Old Trafford outfit now seem to be in a position to beat a string of rivals to the signature of the wide attacker.

In a report that makes excellent reading for head coach Ruben Amorim, Sky Sports indicates that the Brazil international winger appreciates what the Red Devils can offer him. Indeed, one source claims that Cunha “loves United” in the strongest hint yet that the 25-year-old will complete a move to Manchester.
The report adds: “Cunha thinks United are one of the biggest clubs in the world and their current Premier League position - they are currently one place above Wolves in 14th - would not put him off a potential move to Old Trafford.”
Cunha has a release clause of €75 million (£64m) in his contract at Molineux, and should that be triggered, he will depart in the summer.
Clubs queueing up to sign Cunha
Competition for Cunha is fierce, with Sky reporting interest from no fewer than five Premier League clubs, including Manchester United.
Arsenal, who wanted to sign the winger during the January transfer window, are once again interested, while Aston Villa, whose Champions League ambitions suffered a blow on Tuesday as they were defeated 2-1 by Manchester City, also want to add the player to their ranks.
The other two Premier League sides who want to sign Cunha are not named.
Another threat that has emerged in this transfer race is the Saudi Pro League, where there are thought to be multiple clubs willing to offer Wolves the type of money that would trigger his release fee.
Cunha stance on a transfer seems clear, though. The Brazilian’s “love” of Man Utd should give the Red Devils a decisive edge.
