For now, Cunha is set to cost a fair bit, with the player recently signing a new contract that is valid until the summer of 2029. The forward himself hasn't hinted at the fact that he wants to leave the club, claiming that he's happy for now.

Cunha said to BBC Sport (via Tribal Football):

"I never think about leaving, honestly. I know I have a lot of things to do already and I always said that this was the club that gave me the chance to come back."

"They opened the door for me and I always felt I wanted to give back everything so to leave in this type of situation is hard. I am so happy to be here. I hope to continue doing good things."

Arsenal are desperately in need of a striker, with Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus both injured at the moment. Nevertheless, the pair aren't considered out-and-out strikers.

Meanwhile, Manchester United are seemingly unhappy with their current lot of strikers, Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee. It is likely that Cunha would be tempted to join the Emirates out of the two, with the Gunners competing for major honors.

The north Londoners are second in the Premier League standings, while the Red Devils sit 15th.
