One Premier League club are expecting a late bid for their world-class superstar. Arsenal are believed to be frontrunners and long term admirers of the questioned star.
Gunners are desperate to make some attacking signings this month. They have many players on their radar. Mikel Arteta has admitted that they are very active in the market. However, there has not been any action from them yet.
Arsenal have not stepped up their interest in any of their targets. This can also be due to the fact that we are in middle of the season. But, it is very likely to change as one club is expecting a bid this week.
Wolves expecting late bid for long term Arsenal target
According to Football Insider, Wolves are expecting a late bid for Matheus Cunha. Gunners are believed to be frontrunners in the race but are joined by Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest.
Firstly, Cunha has been backbone for Wolves this season. He has scored 10 goals along with picking 4 assists in league keeping them just out of relegation zone. Wolves are aware of his importance and are unwilling to sell him.
However, it is proving too hard to keep the hold of Brazilian. He has not yet signed contract extension and showed his availability in the market. It will require a world-class transfer fee to secure the signature of Cunha this month.
Arsenal have been long-term admirers of the Brazilian attacker. He can be a great addition to the squad and a quality replacement for Saka. After Saka’s return he can replace Martinelli on left wing or can even become number nine at the Emirates.
Aston Villa are also showing interest in Joao Felix at the moment. On the other hand, Forest were said to prepare a club-record fee for Cunha. They were said to be willing to spend £60 million on Brazilian.
