It has been reported that Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker Matheus Cunha’s representatives had contacted Arsenal. It’s no secret that the Gunners need a striker in order to attempt to overtake Premier League leaders Liverpool. Cunha is currently a January possibility that is being seriously considered, according to FootballTransfers. According to the outlet, Arsenal has renewed their interest in the Brazilian as a result of the ongoing contract dispute with his present team.
According to the website, there is still a discrepancy in their assessment of the 25-year-old, even though personal terms are not a problem with Cunha. The Midlands club would currently only let their forward depart during the January transfer window for a sum above £70 million. However, Cunha is not seen to be a priority acquisition like Benjamin Sesko, and the Gunners would not be willing to spend more than about £45 million.
Matheus Cunha pushing for blockbuster Arsenal move
According to sources who spoke to TEAMtalk, Cunha has indicated that he is prepared to join a team that is contending in the main leagues, raising the chance that he would leave Wolves this month. Arsenal has been in close contact with Cunha’s agents and has identified him as a major target, as was previously reported. The Gunners are in a strong position to make a move for Cunha, and according to insiders, they may make a £50 million offer before the January transfer window shuts and the chance to acquire him diminishes.
Wolves’ goal to retain the Brazilian international has been made plain during the month, but Pereira has also made it obvious that any indications of the player’s bad attitude would not be accepted, which has caused friction between the two teams. Cunha’s agency, The Bertolucci Sports Group, already enjoys a positive working relationship with Arsenal because they have Gabriel, a center-back for Arteta, on their books.
