Manchester United is on their way to the worst finish in the Premier League since a very long time. Ruben Amorim’s arrival as the manager has not reaped fruitful rewards as one would have expected.
Manchester United is on their way to the worst finish in the Premier League since a very long time
The journey has been nothing less than a rollercoaster for the Portuguese manager who has called out the players on multiple occasions and also made clear his intentions of signing new players in the upcoming summer window and also selling some players in the team to make some money for the purchases.
One area where Manchester United need fast reinforcements is the attack
Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee have failed to inspire this United team in the clutch moments on different occasions during the whole season. Both the strikers have had a miserable season in front of the goal and the stats for Manchester United do not look good in terms of attacking aspects.
They have scored only 38 goals in the premier league in the 33 matches that they have played
Matheus Cunha on the other hand has been shining armor for the Wolverhampton Wanderers. He has been prolific for the Wolves and has been involved in the playmaking as well as the goal scoring for them.
Wolves have won the last 5 matches in the PL which means they are out of the relegation zone for some time and wont go down to the championship unless they lose all of their remaining matches. Cunha has scored 14 goals and assisted 4 goals in the 28 matches that he has played in the premier league.

The number 9 has proved in the yellow shirt that he can play on the left wing as well be the creator and play behind the striker as an attacking midfielder. He has proven Premier League experience and is a target for a lot of top clubs in the summer.
Arsenal and Liverpool were leading the race for him until now as Manchester United have entered the chat and are keen on their approach.
