What makes Cunha afraid when joining MU

Man Utd have just announced the signing of Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £62 million. The Brazilian player is expected to help MU improve their attack next season. However, history shows that the "Theatre of Dreams" is not a stage for "Samba dancers".

Jose Kleberson: In 2003, Kleberson became the first Brazilian player to play for MU. However, his career quickly declined with only 30 appearances in 2 seasons with the "Red Devils".

Fabio: In contrast to his twin brother Rafael who enjoyed success at Old Trafford, Fabio had a difficult career due to not being able to compete for a position with Patrice Evra. The defender born in 1990 played for MU for 5 seasons but only played a reserve role, before being pushed to Cardiff in 2013.

Anderson: The Brazilian midfielder joined MU in 2007 and immediately helped the Old Trafford club win the Premier League and Champions League. However, the 2007/08 season was also Anderson's only peak during his years at MU. The former Porto player was gradually eliminated due to lack of progress.

Andreas Pereira: Pereira is a product of the Carrington academy. His career was closely linked to the empty period of MU. Pereira's talent was only truly recognized when he moved to Fulham.

Fred: The Brazilian player joined MU for a fee of 52 million euros but his performance did not meet expectations. Fred's physical foundation and ability to create breakthroughs are his qualities. However, he lacks an important factor to wear the shirt of a big club like MU, which is stability.

Alex Telles: When he arrived at Old Trafford, Telles declared that he would become the best full-back in the Premier League. However, he did not win a title with MU and left "without fanfare".

Antony: One of the most forgettable deals in MU's transfer history. The "Red Devils" rushed to sign Antony, only to have to spend 100 million euros to bring in a player who was judged "not capable of playing in the Premier League".

Casemiro: The Brazilian star joined MU for a sky-high price (70 million euros) but only had one sublime season, before becoming a burden both professionally and financially. Casemiro's late revival at the end of the 2024/25 season was still not enough to help MU save the disastrous season.
