Despite disciplinary troubles, Wolves mainstay Matheus Cunha is still wanted by Arsenal and Aston Villa.
It is unlikely that Matheus Cunha’s disciplinary problems have deterred serious bidders Arsenal and Aston Villa, according to a report from Football Insider. The Wolves star, who has been playing brilliantly, is still someone they want to sign.
Even though Cunha’s time at Atletico Madrid wasn’t fantastic, his transfer to Wolves has undoubtedly improved his situation. At the beginning of 2023, he joined the English club. In the summer of 2023, the initial loan agreement turned into a permanent one.
For the Wolverhampton-based team, he has played in 85 games overall and has helped score 44 goals (31 goals, 13 assists). He has participated in 29 games this season, tallying 15 goals and four assists.
In the summer, Cunha might make a move.
Numerous elite clubs in the nation are keeping an eye on the Brazilian due to his outstanding accomplishments. The 25-year-old can play anywhere in the attack, although he loves to play as a number nine. Both Aston Villa and Arsenal are interested in signing him. The player chose to remain with the Wolves until the end of the season, despite their January attempt to sign him.
Even though he did sign a new contract last month, which now extends until the summer of 2029, he may still be available next summer because of a £62.5 million release clause in his current contract. The athlete may be amenable to a move before the upcoming season because he is eager to play for a larger team and compete in the Champions League.
A new number nine is what Arsenal wants. A striker who has already established himself in the Premier League is exactly what Mikel Arteta is searching for in a goal scorer. Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio were added to Villa’s roster in the winter, but they could return to their partner club ahead of next season.
Cunha might be a fantastic addition to their team if they are ever in the market for a star forward again. Although both teams have been keeping a close eye on him in anticipation of a possible move, his recent disciplinary problems might have turned off his main suitors.
Despite recent problems, Arsenal and Villa are still interested.
After yelling at Milos Kerkez during an FA Cup match against Bournemouth a few days ago, he was sent out, and he may face a lengthy suspension. This is not the first time he has been suspended; earlier in the season, the 25-year-old got into a fight with an Ipswich Town employee and was given a two-match ban.
Clubs now frequently consider a player’s attitude before attempting to sign him. However, the report claims that neither Aston Villa nor Arsenal have been deterred by these problems. Both are still interested in him and may approach Wolves before the upcoming campaign.
