Although Cunha was linked with a departure in January, he ultimately signed a new contract, temporarily silencing speculation. However, his deal included a release clause that is now set to be activated this summer.
United manager Ruben Amorim views Cunha as a crucial addition to his attacking lineup.
Despite ongoing discussions about his future, the Wolves star has maintained his impressive form, matching the record for the most goals scored by a Brazilian in a Premier League season.
With 15 goals to his name, Cunha has taken a moment to acknowledge the club’s fans for their unwavering support.
He conceded that they didn’t get to the heights the fans deserved but his personal exploits came due to the “dedication and love” he has for Wolves – despite potentially playing his last game for Wolves.
Cunha said on social media: “Wolves, what can I say to you? What an incredible season. We didn’t get to where you deserve to be, but we did everything we could to make you proud. I love these guys.
“Individually, it was the best season of my life. All of this was only possible because of all the dedication and love I have for this club. I became the Brazilian with the most goals in a Premier League season, along with @roberto_firmino and @gabriel.martinelli. I made mistakes and got things right, but always because I lived this club so much.
“All I ever wanted was to do the impossible for Wolves. Another one is over. And thank you all for all the affection. Looks good, looks fine…”
Man United now look set to add Cunha to their ranks. Despite missing out on Champions League it is understood they still have the finances to pursue the Brazilian star.
They desperately need to improve their attack with the likes of Rasmus Hojlund continuing to underwhelm.
Despite reports of an agreement between the player and United, Vitor Pereira has remained coy on his future: “I have the same information as you. I don’t know. I just know he’s my player.
“He’s committed with the team, he’s working with happiness and we will see what happens. You must ask him. He is happy. I feel he is happy.”
