Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha has come out to open up on his £62.5 million switch to Manchester United. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he has a lot of faith in Ruben Amorim, and the Portuguese manager played a major role in convincing him to leave Wolves and join MUFC this summer.
Cunha added that he arrived at Old Trafford to help the team, and his manager fully believes in his ability as a player.
His words, “Maybe outside, I think maybe my decision, they don’t understand. But when you have always dreamed to play here, it’s easier to pick this decision. For me, no one else is like United. Of course, I know it’s been a hard season for everyone. I think my decision shows what this club means to me, and what I believe it can be again.
I’m here to help the team — and to help him. All our discussions made my decision easier. You feel when a coach believes in you.
It’s hard to explain. Only my grandma had the channel to watch the Premier League, so on weekends we would go to her house just to watch the games. My cousin supported United. He showed me the team, the players, the passion. When we played on the gravel pitch in Brazil, we used to call it ‘Old Trafford’. That’s how it started for me.”
WOW.
Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.
Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.
The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
