Matheus Cunha
26-Year-Old
Manchester United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Cunha spent the 2024/25 season at Wolverhampton and finished with 21 goal contributions across 33 appearances (15 goals, six assists), and he figures to get even more opportunities to make a sizable impact at Old Trafford. Cunha should slot into the No. 10 role behind the striker and has the chance to form a partnership with Bruno Fernandes. Having racked up 27 goals and 13 assists for Wolverhampton over the last two seasons, Cunha should at least be able to match those numbers. That said, with players like Fernandes and Amad Diallo around him, Cunha may see less of the ball than at Wolves as less of a focal point.
Scores one goal
Matheus Cunha scored one goal to go with eight shots (three on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and three chances created in Monday's 4-4 draw against AFC Bournemouth.
ANALYSIS
Cunha scored against Bournemouth on Monday with a close-range finish after a poor defensive clearance and could have added more, firing eight shots for the second straight match but repeatedly denied by the opposing goalkeeper. Back to full fitness after a recent knock, the Brazilian has now logged three consecutive appearances and should play a key role going forward, especially with Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo set to depart for AFCON. He has recorded one goal, one assist and 19 shots over his last three Premier League appearances.

Given new shirt at Old Trafford
Matheus Cunha will wear No. 10 at Manchester United in the 2025/26 season, according to Alex Crook of TalkSPORT.
ANALYSIS
As if there wasn't enough signs that Matheus Cunha was going to be a key player for Manchester United, the fact that he'll wear the No. 10 backs that up. That number belonged to Marcus Rashford in recent years. Cunha figures to be a key player for the Red Devils under the tutelage of Ruben Amorim.
