Amorim can transform United’s season by signing Wolves forward

Manchester United can transform their Premier League fortunes by signing one of Wolverhampton Wanderers’ best players in January.

The Red Devils have suffered a huge slump in form over the past few weeks. They are currently 14th in the table with just 22 points.

The club are seven points behind a potential Champions League spot, and they need a huge turnaround to make up ground next year.

A marquee winter signing is necessary and Wolves forward Matheus Cunha would be the perfect acquisition for the club.

The Brazil international has been a revelation for Wolves despite their league woes this campaign.

He has accumulated 10 goals and four assists in 19 appearances. He was exceptional against United in yesterday’s 2-0 league triumph.

Cunha scored straight from a corner to open the scoring for the Midlands outfit and put the game end to bed in stoppage time with an assist for Hwang Hee-chan.

Aside from his goal involvements, Cunha won a stunning 14 duels with six ball recoveries.

The £44 million signing also completed four dribbles and induced five fouls from the Red Devils.

The Brazilian star’s performance was brilliant all-around, and United should pay a premium fee to sign him in January.

Wolves are ‘extremely reluctant‘ to part ways with the versatile forward, but the Red Devils should test their resolve with a package of around £60m.

The Midlands outfit are walking a tightrope with financial spending limits, and United should make an ambitious approach for him.

Wolves and United play with a similar 3-4-2-1 system, and Cunha could seamlessly adapt. He would be a dream partner for Bruno Fernandes behind the central striker.

If Wolves are prepared to cash in, United’s chances of signing him could still depend on a high-profile exit. Marcus Rashford may need to be offloaded permanently.
