Atlético de Madrid would not be willing to let him escape for less than 50 million
United are in intense talks with the player’s agent
Manchester United had frequent contacts with Matheus Cunha’s agents for the incorporation of the Brazilian, but there is still no agreement. Fabrizio Romano, a journalist specialized in the transfer market, explained that despite the constant conversations in recent days between the player’s agent and the English club, there is no consensus on his departure for Manchester.
On his arrival at the rojiblanco club, the striker signed for five seasons and 26 million. Cunha, who arrived at the Madrid team as the player who was going to rest Luis Suárez, has not performed at the level that Atlético expected. At the moment, Cholo Simeone’s team would not be willing to let him out for less than 50 million. Given the footballer’s youth, the people of Madrid would like to get a slice of his sale and therefore be able to replace him with a replacement of guarantees. The Brazilian played 37 games (29 in the League, 5 in the Champions League, 2 in the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup) and scored 7 goals last season.
