I will not say anything — Amorim tight-lipped on £62M move for 17-goal Brazilian

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has refused to be drawn into speculation that his team are actively working on a deal for Wolves forward Matheus Cunha.

Matheus Cunha is reportedly a top target for Manchester United after an impressive season for Wolves, scoring 17 goals and registering four assists in 31 appearances.

The Red Devils are expected to meet with Wolves next week to discuss a potential deal, which could involve activating Cunha's £62.5m release clause with staggered payments.

United boss Ruben Amorim was questioned about the interest during his pre-match press conference against Bournemouth, but remained tight-lipped about the potential move.

"I could say this is a conversation for the end of the season, but I have an idea that is clear because we need to do things early," Amorim said.

"I will not say anything about Matheus because if I say one time, I will have to comment on every situation. I am focused on this season, and even in the next few games, could change our plan for next season."

Amorim is believed to view Cunha as a perfect fit for his 3-4-3 formation, with the Brazilian's pace and power being attractive assets. Meanwhile, the Red Devils are also expected to pursue Ipswich Town's Liam Delap, who will have a £30m release clause in his contract if his club is relegated from the Premier League.
