Manchester United have signed Brazil forward Matheus Cunha from Wolves in a deal worth £62.5 million ($83 million).
United announced the signing on Sunday.
Cunha is expected to pen a five-year contract with United, who have the option of extending the deal by a further 12 months.
The club stated: “Manchester United has reached agreement with Wolverhampton Wanderers for the signing of Matheus Cunha.
“Everyone at Manchester United looks forward to welcoming Matheus to Old Trafford.”
The 26-year-old forward was in Manchester over the weekend to put the finishing touches to his move, which is subject to a visa and registration.

Cunha, who has won 13 caps for Brazil, scored 18 goals in all competitions for Wolves this season, winning the club’s player of the year award.
The Brazilian finished his Wolves career with 33 goals in 92 appearances in all competitions after signing from Atletico Madrid in January 2023.
United activated the release clause in Cunha’s Wolves contract to ensure he becomes boss Ruben Amorim’s first signing of the summer transfer window.
Wolves said the deal was a club-record fee received as they thanked Cunha “for his contributions in old gold” in a statement confirming his departure.
Cunha will join up with Brazil ahead of Friday’s World Cup qualifier against Ecuador, which will be Carlo Ancelotti’s first game in charge of the Selecao.
