Manchester United's summer transfer plans have been revealed following Bruno Fernandes' decision to reject Al Hilal.
Man United announced the signing of Matheus Cunha from Wolves, confirming the transfer on Sunday.
The deal is subject to registration procedures and is expected to be completed once Cunha returns from international duty with Brazil later this month.
The Brazilian forward is set to become the club's first signing of the summer after they activated a £62.5 million release clause in his Wolves contract.

Man United remain in the market for new talent and have set their sights on Bryan Mbeumo, who wants to come to Old Trafford this summer.
Brentford are seeking for a fee in the region of £50 million, with Man United set to bid and open talks in the coming days.
Their pursuit of Mbeumo will continue despite Fernandes appearing to commit his future to Man United.
That's according to Ben Jacobs, who claims the Portuguese rejecting Al Hilal does not have a bearing on the club's chase of Mbeumo.
"Bruno Fernandes rejection of Al-Hilal does not have any bearing on an expected bid for Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo," he wrote on X.
"Although Al-Hilal took talks to an advanced stage before Fernandes turned the offer down, Manchester United never had an approach or bid, and their early window business is entirely independent of Fernandes.
"Naturally, several outgoings will still prove important across the summer due to multiple other priority positions to strengthen in."
If Fernandes had agreed to join Al Hilal, Man United were in line to pocket a £100 million transfer fee.
Of course, they won't be receiving a cash injection from Saudi Arabia as Fernandes has opted against leaving England for the Middle East.
But, per Jacobs, several Man United outgoings are still planned as the club look to raise funds for new signings.
