Tottenham expected to attempt Cunha transfer in the winter transfer window

Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to make offensive additions next year as doubts persist over Richarlison, Son Heung-min and Timo Werner. The Brazilian international and the captain have struggled with fitness for much of the ongoing season, whereas Werner’s loan from RB Leipzig is unlikely to translate into a permanent transfer at the end of the campaign in spite of his decent form of late.

Ange Postecoglou’s side has been incredibly inefficient in the offensive department as well, which hints at the team requiring a more dynamic option or two. And while more business could occur in the summer after the end of 2024/25, Spurs have not ruled out making a signing in January itself in order to bolster their chances of winning silverware come the conclusion of the season.

With that being said, they are planning on holding talks with Wolverhampton Wanderers regarding the possible purchase of Matheus Cunha, according to TBR Football. Tottenham have been impressed with the Brazilian forward this season, thanks to his seven goals and three assists so far and believe he could be a differential addition to their roster for the second part of the campaign.

Wolverhampton Wanderers value Cunha at £60 million, a fee that Spurs would need to pay for almost any quality player. The South American joined the East Midlanders in a £44 million deal from Atletico Madrid in 2023 and has earned a name for himself in the Premier League, thereby prompting interest from the English top flight’s bigger sides since the last few weeks.

It remains to be seen if Wolves will be ready to let go of the versatile attacker midway through the season given how crucial he has been for them and also keeping in mind that Gary O’Neill is battling relegation. Nevertheless, Spurs can be expected to keep an eye on how the situation develops and possibly test the waters at least in the winter even if a move were to not materialise.
