Matheus Cunha, a striker for Atletico Madrid, has allegedly drawn attention from four Premier League teams, including Arsenal. This is big news, with the Gunners on top of the Premier League table. They will want to keep winning games and challenge Manchester City and other teams for the title.

After losing Gabriel Jesus to injury, the Gunners have reportedly been interested in signing Cunha. Jesus just recovered from surgery after he injured his medial ligament while playing for Brazil in the 2022 FIFA World Cup. He will probably miss almost a month of work.

Mikel Arteta’s squad are interested in Jesus’ Brazil teammate Cunha, although they are also planning to play Eddie Nketiah in his place. GOAL said that their interest is not as far along as that of some of their rivals.

The north London giants have been the hub for Brazilian players to flourish in recent times and it could further continue now!!

The striker has been spoken about with Aston Villa and Wolverhampton Wanderers for some time. Wolves are reportedly the frontrunners to sign the Atletico Madrid player, although Villa also has a shot.

Another English club that has been in contact with Cunha’s representatives about a possible January transfer is Leeds United. Atletico is apparently willing to sell the attacker in January, although his opinion on the trade is unclear at this time.

Given Cunha’s struggles at the Wanda Metropolitano, the Rojiblancos’ attitude is perhaps not unexpected. After making the move from Hertha BSC in the summer of 2021, he has struggled to find the back of the net. He has scored only seven goals and assisted on eight more in 54 games played.

Will Matheus Cunha move to Arsenal; is this move going to actually happen or is it just paper-talk?

The Brazilian has had a particularly bad season. He has seen little action in 16 games in La Liga and the UEFA Champions League (played only 487 minutes). As a result, Cunha was not selected to represent Brazil in the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

His current contract with Atletico continues until 2026, which is worth mentioning. Arsenal’s rumoured pursuit of Matheus Cunha’s Atletico Madrid colleague Joao Felix is farther along than their interest in Cunha himself.

The Premier League leaders are reportedly one among many teams in negotiations with Felix’s agent Jorge Mendes, as reported by Corriere Dello Sport (via TBR Football). Aside from Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Paris Saint-Germain have been linked to the Portuguese striker.

So far in the 2022-23 season with Atletico, Felix has likewise struggled. In 18 games, he has scored only four goals. The suspected Arsenal target had a good 2022 FIFA World Cup, contributing to Portugal’s success with a goal and two assists in four games.
