Manchester United were not stagnant last season. Things seemed pretty bleak as the Red Devils closed out a year when they didn’t offer a route to European football and scored a 15th place finish in the Premier League.
However, to borrow a general social media phrase, “When you’re big, you’re big.”
Matheus Cunha is proof that he joined United from the Wolverhampton Wanderers despite interests from Arsenal, Aston Villa, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur. All four stakeholders will play in Europe for the next semester.

After mbeumo, Man Utd is in talks with top striker targets
Brian Mbemo told Brentford that he would leave the club only if it meant moving to the theatre of Dreams. Ineos sees two offers already rejected and pushes to get it done.
If the Cameroonian signs on the side of Reuben Amorim, he joins Cunha with a new look strike force that promises far more than last year’s show. And it doesn’t even consider elite strikers who may still be joining the club.
Man United’s interest in a particular Viktor Gyoker has been well documented over the past few months. However, their 2024/25 disaster created some restrictions and the 27-year-old, who was extremely dangerous under the wings of Amorim, has expressed his preference for signing to Arsenal.
However, Catchoffside recently reported that it was only a matter of time before Gyoker moved. Arsenal and United are asking the club to discuss their movements with the sport and stay in the loop about his future.
Frederico Varandas, president of Sporting, has since said there is a “strong possibility” that Sweden International will be selling under the release clause of 100 million euros (£85 million) this summer. A more realistic rate of 80 million euros (£68 million) is advertised.
Why Viktor Gyoker is the best place for Man Utd
Imagine this bottom stage where Man United has swooped after this horrifying year, with Amorim having a front 3 made up of cuña, Mbeumo and gyoker.
That would certainly be an improvement on last year’s attack crops. Gyoker leads journalist Alex Turk with an outrageous return of 97 goals and 28 assists in 102 matches in the sport, calling him a “monster” when urging United to bid.
Signing such a prolific player to go with Mbeumo might prove the formula for a return to the pinnacle of European competition, especially if Gyoker considers that he overtook all players in Europe’s top 10 divisions last year.

The detractor points to Gyoker, who robbed him of his trade on Portugal’s top flight, but it’s worth noting that he still scored those goals and placed a hat-trick past Manchester City in the Champions League.
And like Mbeumo, he is a championship-made striker and thrives in the city of Coventry before he wins his big move.
Mbeumo has learned to trade in EFL like Gyoker – aims to rival Swedish goal returns, but he also promotes individual success in his dance partners.
According to the sofa score, the bees averaged 1.8 key passes per 2024/25 Premier League game, creating another 17 big opportunities.
Mbeumo’s playing style has a certain level of integrity and intelligence. This highlights United’s potential in tough situations. Here, the margin of error actually narrows over the next few months.
These two forwards combined with Cunha could potentially raise Red Devils again. For now, fans will reserve their judgment, of course, but even the most discouraged fans will admit that INEO is moving forward in the market.
