Tottenham Hotspur have identified Matheus Cunha as a target when the transfer window reopens in January.
The North London club need to improve their squad in the coming weeks, and Cunha would be a quality acquisition for them. The 25-year-old has established himself as one of the most exciting attackers in the Premier League with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
He has been described as a player whose “football IQ is absolutely sensational”.
Despite their decline this season, the Brazilian has continued to perform at a high level, and it is no surprise that Tottenham are keeping an eye on his situation. According to Give Me Sport, the player is expected to embark on a fresh challenge if Wolves continue to falter. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can take advantage of the situation and get the deal done.
The Brazilian has scored 24 goals and picked up 12 assists since joining the English club in January 2023. Wolves are hoping to tie him down to a new long-term deal, but the player is unlikely to rush into an extension.
It will be interesting to see if Wolves can turn the season around and convince the Brazilian attacker to stay at the club.
Cunha could be the ideal acquisition for Tottenham. He is capable of operating as a centre-forward, a second striker as well as a winger. He is capable of creating goalscoring opportunities and finding the back of the net as well. Tottenham icon Son Heung-min is on the decline, and Cunha could be the ideal long-term replacement for him.
He is well-settled in English football and he could transform the Tottenham attack if he joins the club. The opportunity to join them will be attractive for the player as well, and it would be a step up in his career. However, he is likely to cost a premium and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham are ready to break the bank for him.
