Liverpool Target “Perfect” £62m Premier League Star
Liverpool are looking to strengthen their attack this summer and have set their sights on Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Matheus Cunha. The Brazilian international has a £62.5 million release clause that activates at the end of the 2024/25 season.
According to recent reports, Cunha is hoping to secure a move to Liverpool. The 24-year-old has impressed for Wolves this season, scoring 15 goals and providing 4 assists across all competitions. His versatility allows him to play across the forward line and as an attacking midfielder.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot sees Cunha as an ideal addition to complement stars like Mohamed Salah, Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo. The Brazilian’s clinical finishing and work rate off the ball would suit Slot’s high-intensity system.
Cunha has outperformed Liverpool’s current left-sided forwards in several key metrics this season, including goals scored, shots on target, and ball recoveries. His ability to press and win duels would add a new dimension to the Reds’ attack.
While the £62.5 million fee is substantial, Liverpool view Cunha as a potential game-changer who could take their forward line to the next level. With Darwin Nunez likely to depart this summer, signing the “perfect” Cunha could be a priority for the Anfield club.
