JAKARTA - Manchester United are preparing to undergo a busy summer transfer market to forget the disappointing 2024'25 season. One of their first steps is to bring in Brazilian striker Matheus Cunha, who is expected to be the first signing of the season.

Under the direction of Ruben Amorim, the new coach who faced tough challenges at the start of his term in England, United now has the opportunity to reshape the squad according to the Portuguese coach's vision. After only signing full-back Patrick Dorgu on last winter's exchange, Matheus Cunha became the beginning of the big plan of the atmosphere.

After failing to shine at Atversustico Madrid and again showing potential at Wolverhampton Wanderers, Cunha now has a new opportunity to shine at a giant club like Manchester United. Amorim is said to make Cunha an important part of his long-term plans. In addition to getting an important role on the pitch, Cunha also has the potential to get a prestigious jersey number at Old Trafford.

Cunha started her professional career in Switzerland with FC Sion, wearing the number 70 for the first team and 18 for the U-21 team. When joining RB Leipzig, he wore the number 20 and scored a spectacular solo goal against Bayer Leverkusen who was nominated for the 2019 Pusk betters Award.

While playing at Hertha Berlin, Cunha wore the number 26 and 9, before finally settling with her favorite number, 10. When she moved to At Stopletico Madrid, she wore the number 19 and then 9 after Luis Suörez left, even though she failed to adapt to Diego Simeone's system.

Cunha then joined Wolves in the 2022'23 season. He wore the number 12 during the loan period, but was immediately given the number 10 when his status was permanent for the 2024'25 season.

At the level of the Brazilian national team, Cunha has collected 13 caps and has worn the numbers 7, 9, 19, and 21.

Marcus Rashford is currently listed as the owner of the number 10 jersey at Manchester United. However, after being loaned to Aston Villa over the past six months and his unclear future, it is likely that Rashford will not return to Old Trafford.

If Rashford leaves, Matheus Cunha has a great chance of inheriting the prestigious number 10 jersey at United.

In addition, the number 19 he has worn at At Stopletico is also available. Number 21, which is now held by Antony Another player who is likely to be sold this summer can also be an option.

With Matheus Cunha as part of Ruben Amoram's big plan, and the potential to wear an iconic number at Manchester United, this summer could be the start of a new era at Old Trafford.
