Manchester United are set to accelerate their transfer activity in the coming weeks after securing their first summer signing, Matheus Cunha from Wolves.
Ruben Amorim’s side are coming off a difficult campaign that ended with a 15th-place Premier League finish and no European football on the horizon.
While the arrival of Matheus Cunha has been welcomed, the Red Devils are far from done, with striking reinforcements high on the agenda after a goal-shy season at Old Trafford.

Manchester United risk missing out on Viktor Gyokeres, with reports suggesting Arsenal have made major progress and are now seen as the frontrunners.
Elsewhere, the future of another key attacking option appears to be slipping away, and United could once again be left empty-handed.
Juventus have stepped up their pursuit of Lille forward Jonathan David and are believed to have presented the Canadian with a formal contract offer.
According to the latest edition of Corriere dello Sport, the Serie A side have tabled a five-year deal worth €6 million per season, along with a €15 million signing bonus, to convince the prolific striker to make the switch to Turin.

Jonathan David, now a free agent, enjoyed an outstanding campaign in Ligue 1, scoring 25 goals to bring his total for Lille to 109 goals and 30 assists in 232 appearances.
While Manchester United have long admired the 24-year-old, they have yet to act decisively, despite knowing his desire to move to the Premier League.
The same report notes that Juventus remain fully committed to landing the player, even if their current offer falls slightly short of the demands from David’s camp.
Ruben Amorim is under pressure to fix the team’s attacking issues, with Rasmus Hojlund underperforming and little depth available up front.
United may still move for David, but every day without action only strengthens Juventus’s position—and with a player of his calibre available for free, inaction could prove costly.
