Man Utd fans sent into meltdown as 'sensational' player drops huge Old Trafford transfer hint on social media

One reported Manchester United transfer target has sent fans into orbit with his latest social media activity.

It has been a turbulent season so far for United as they struggled early on under the guidance of Erik ten Hag.

The Dutchman was eventually dismissed in October after a 2-1 defeat against West Ham United.

Portuguese Ruben Amorim was tasked to turn United's fortunes back around after impressing at Sporting Clube de Portugal.

On Sunday, Amorim got his biggest win so far as Red Devils boss after beating rivals Manchester City in the Premier League.

Looking ahead to the January window, Amorim will be hoping to bring some of his own players in as he looks to install his playing style as soon as possible.

As reported by The Metro, United have shown interest in Wolverhampton Wanderers star Matheus Cunha.

It has been suggested that Tottenham Hotspur are also keeping tabs on the 25-year-old Brazilian star.

On the back of the recent links, Cunha has now sent United fans into meltdown after 'liking' a comment left on his most recent Instagram post.

The comment read: "Manchester United soon."

Cunha could be a very good signing for United, having been described as sensational by ex-City defender Micah Richards.

He said on BBC: "His football IQ is absolutely sensational. He's the one who can unlock the doors. He finds the little pockets of space and makes the right decisions at the right times.

"He's always scanning where he needs to be and always plays the right pass. He is so key in what Wolves are trying to do. He is the best at everything. Off the ball, he can do a little bit more - but on the ball, he is certainly the main man in this team."

Cunha could miss games for Wolves in the near future after being charged with misconduct by the FA on the back of an altercation with a member of Ipswich Town staff. The Brazilian was filmed pushing the memeber of staff, which knocked his glasses off.

What has Matheus Cunha said about his future?

Speaking to the Wolves website recently, Cunha stated that it feels like home to be playing for the club.

He said: "I feel like it’s my home. I feel the admiration of the fans, and this is something that I never believed I would get when I first came here, to a small city in England, which is completely different from my hometown – but now I feel like I’m at home.

"The fans are unbelievable with me, with my family, and I have only great things to say about my team-mates. But to go to the stadium and to perform for them is like I feel at home."

Cunha added: "I feel like I want to do everything I can to change the situation, because when you play with a little bit more passion, not as if it was just my work, then I think you put in a little bit more things that can change it."
