Manchester United have held positive contract talks to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Matheus Cunha. Ruben Amorim and United executives are aligned on trying to bring Cunha to Old Trafford and they are taking the first steps in attempting to agree personal terms.

Cunha's agents have expressed enthusiasm about United's interest in the 25-year-old, who could see his £90,000-per-week salary doubled. Meanwhile, 22-year-old Delap fits into United's preferred recruitment strategy with key figures at Old Trafford focusing on younger talent.

Matheus Cunha will become Manchester United’s first major summer transfer signing after the Red Devils agreed to match the Wolverhampton Wanderers star’s release fee, according to a report from Brazil.
