1BSPORTS 1B Sports June 13th News Steven Railston, a Manchester United team reporter from the Manchester Evening News, wrote an article saying that Manchester United can sign Premier League stars like Cunha, proving that the Red Devils are still one of the world’s top clubs.
The original text of the reporter is as follows:
On Thursday, Manchester United officially confirmed its first signing this summer.
Although the first day of the transfer window opening, Manchester United announced that they would sign Cunha from Wolves for £62.5 million, the deal was finally completed after the player visa was approved. With all the procedures completed, the Brazilian striker officially signed a 5+1 contract, becoming the first new player to the Carrington base this summer.
Cunha said after joining Manchester United: “I can’t say what it feels like to be a Manchester United player. When I was a child, I watched the Premier League at my grandmother’s house in Brazil. Manchester United is my favorite English team. I dream of wearing the Red Devils’ jersey one day. I want to thank my family and everyone who helped me realize my dream.”
“I can’t wait to meet my teammates in the preseason and prepare for the new season. Now my entire focus is to strive to become an important member of the team and help the club return to the top.”
If Cunha’s words are true, it just shows that no matter how the performance of the field is, Manchester United’s attractiveness to players always exists.
Although fans of Premier League rivals have ridiculed Manchester United for being unattractive this summer, top players have always yearned for playing for England’s largest club. Cunha has received invitations from many Premier League teams, but is only willing to join Manchester United. The weight of this Red Devils jersey is even more precious after experiencing a nightmare season.
26-year-old Cunha smiled brightly in his appearance on Thursday, and his social media continued to update Manchester United related content, and the joy of signing the contract was beyond words. He immediately posted photos of his son wearing a Manchester United jersey. All his actions after the rumors of his transfer meeting confirmed the authenticity of his “children’s dream”.
Brentford winger Mbemo also stated that he would give priority to Manchester United. Although Arsenal, Tottenham and Newcastle are more attractive from a competitive perspective, the Gunners are the contenders of the Premier League championship, Tottenham just defeated Manchester United in the Europa League final, and Newcastle has the qualification to the Champions League, Mbemo is still in the Red Devils.
Manchester United, who just experienced the worst season in team history, is still one of the largest clubs in the world, and sometimes, this alone is enough to attract top new players.
