After the failure in the 2024/25 season, “Manchester United” began preparations for the new season with serious changes. One of the main problems of the team was the lack of efficiency in the attack line.
Head coach Ruben Amorim started to feel the need for a player who could finish the ball quickly and effectively in attack during the season. It was thought that this task could be performed by Rasmus Hojlund or Joshua Zirkzee in previous seasons, but the results showed that they did not justify the confidence placed in them.
“Manchester United”'s new “spearhead” — Mateus Kunya
Based on Amorim's needs, the club showed sharp activity in its transfer policy and signed a contract with Wolverhampton's forward Mateus Kunya. This was announced by the “Manchester United” club through its official social media pages.
According to reliable sources, the transfer of the Brazilian player cost the Manchester club 74 million euros. The contract is set to last until mid-2030.
Kunya's statistics — confidence-inspiring level
The 26-year-old forward played a total of 36 matches for Wolverhampton in the completed season. In these games, he became one of the key figures of his team with 17 goals and 6 assists.
Kunya is known not only as a sharp attacker but also as a technically skilled player who understands positional play well and actively moves with the ball.
Is a new era beginning at “United”?
Under the leadership of Ruben Amorim, “Manchester United” is fundamentally rebuilding its attack line. After the arrival of a high-level player like Kunya, the team may experience changes not only tactically but also psychologically.
With this transfer, the “Red Devils” fans are hoping for high expectations for the new season. Now the question is: Can Kunya make his mark at “Old Trafford”?
