Matheus Cunha: Wolves striker gives verdict on Arsenal & Man Utd interest

Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Matheus Cunha has insisted he has no desire to leave the club in the near future.

An excellent individual season - 12 goals in 24 games to date - has seen Cunha emerge as a transfer target for a number of the Premier League's elite sides, with Arsenal and Manchester United among those tipped to launch bids for the Brazilian in January.

Cunha inked a new contract on February 1 but that has done little to scare off his suitors, with a summer transfer still a subject of significant speculation.

"I never think about leaving, honestly," he told Football Focus. "I know I have a lot of things to do already and I always said that this was the club that gave me the chance to come back.

"They opened the door for me and I always felt I wanted to give back everything so to leave in this type of situation is hard. I am so happy to be here. I hope to continue doing good things."

Cunha added: "When Wolves came in, one of my dreams was playing in the Premier League and Wolves gave me the opportunity to be here."

Reports claim Cunha's new contract includes a release clause worth around £62m, which Wolves will likely demand to be triggered if they are to part ways with the 25-year-old.
