The problem as usual will be clearing out the ridiculously overpaid who offer us nothing. Sancho, Casemiro and VDB will be difficult to shift.

Yeah sure we are
£60m 
Remember is being linked with Cunha when he was at Atletico. In hindsight, would've probably been a decent signing at the time.
Absolutely not, no
We were linked with him when he left Atletico, very decent player. Ended up with 12 goals in the league and he presses like a demon. £60m seems extremely unlikely though.
I swear, there is not a single speculation including the words, Manchester United, PL Player, and a fee lower than 50 million pounds, even if we are looking to buy 39-year-old Scott Carson.
Anything from the Mirror or sbates should be ignored in the transfer forum.
Good player but £60m is laughable.
Who says we haven't decided on the manager?
I read this post straight after his brainfart in the final
Typical isn't it, he has impressed me throughout the CL though and he's the perfect age to come in and challenge Shaw
Weren't we linked with him for about 45m?
If wolves signed him for around that fee, they'd want more.
Not sure if he's the signing for us.. but he does look good whenever I've seen him

£60m is probably too much for him, but he's definitely the striker profile we should target due to how he can facilitate for other players. And like you say, his pressing and intensity is of a very high level but he's also someone that is physically powerful and can carry the ball superbly well. I mentioned him as someone who we should target to rotate with Hojlund and replace Martial in the squad. Cunha is a striker who seems like a nightmare to play against and imo will give us a different dimension, especially inside the box.
But for £60m it's probably not a deal worth pursuing.
Aren't the Mirror on the banned list?
He's a good player not the right cost
£60m
think they paid about 50 so they wouldn't let him go for less.
The Mirror is, yes, but Steve Bates isn't banned.
Aaah ok fair enough!
I could see us going for Fofana or Thuram,talk of Onana seems to have cooled a bit recently
Also a good age at 25, league proven and plays in a transition side. As you say though £60m isn't a deal worth pursuing, would likely be prohibitive to our other squad investment needs.
Rational Muppet. Sounds like a racehorse. I have never met such a creature. Is it a bit like a unicorn?

Great prospect but everything I’ve seen suggests he’ll want to stay in Germany.
We should convince him and his agent that things will be different under INEOS and get him here.
When Sesco is £46-52m yeah right slow news day again for united?
Maybe, but who says we have decided on the manager?
My opinion about the club and this transfer window remains though.
Cunha is good but that is big money.
With the prices as high as they are, maybe we should grow our own players.
Invest in cloning.

Cunha in his first PL season has 19 G/A in 2454 mins
Rashford 22/23 PL has 22 G/A in 2890 mins
We all talk about how great Rashford was last season, Cunha brings so much more than G/A to the table IMO
Is £60m really that expensive for a PL striker? Wolves paid £44m for him last year

Not sure they will sell him even for that fee. But makes sense to sound him out. I think it is probable that he is a type of player we hold interest in. The false nine type that we used a bit towards the end of the season.
You would think Rutter at Leeds is also an option.
He'd be a very good signing in my opinion. People laughing at 60 million but good luck getting a striker for cheaper than that. 50-60 million is going to be the floor unless it's an unknown youth prospect.
I don't think any striker we sign is going to be significantly better than Hojlund. It's going to be someone at the same level.
Yeah think you are absolutely spot on unfortunately
If he improves from this season he’ll be a very good buy for someone and 60 is totally fair if they bought him for 40something. I would say an extra 10-20 million for a successful debut season of PL football is very fair. In fact Wolves probably won’t sell for that as is their right.
Thing is, a team like Liverpool would get Cuhna for 35-40mil.
How would they if Wolves paid 44 for him? This is just silly.
If Bayern aren’t going to sign Ouedraogo then we need to swoop in immediately. He’s exactly the type of signing INEOS claim we’re going to focus on - young, talented with an ideal contract situation/available cheap.
Never seen him, how good is he?
