Paris Saint Germain battle Arsenal and Manchester United for 25-year-old Premier League star: Reports

Arsenal and Manchester United are engaged in a three-horse race for Matheus Cunha, according to Caught Offside. The Brazilian forward has been a rare shining light for Wolverhampton Wanderers this season.

The Midlands club are 19th in the league table and remain in danger of relegation. However, Cuhna has been outstanding so far, plundering in eight goals and three assists from 17 games across competitions.

His efforts have forced clubs across the continent to take note. With Wolves' continuity in the top tier of English football uncertain, the 25-year-old could be on the move in 2025.

Arsenal are on the hunt for a new No. 9 this summer, with Gabriel Jesus failing to impress. Despite the hattrick against Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup quarterfinal, the Brazilian remains a peripheral figure with the Gunners.

The north London side are likely to push for a new striker next year and have Cunha on their agenda. The Brazilian also fits the profile of players recently targeted by Arsenal.

However, Cunha is also wanted at Manchester United. The Red Devils are looking to revamp their attack in 2025, with Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho both linked with exits. The player's versatility will also suit new head coach Ruben Amorim, who is trying to implement his 3-4-3 system at Manchester United.

Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are in the race as well. The Ligue 1 champions are still looking for a proper replacement for Kylian Mbappe and have reportedly zeroed in on Cunha. The player's contract at the Molineux runs until 2027.

Matheus Cunha is reportedly on Arsenal's radar

Arsenal have been linked with a move for Manchester United's Marcus Rashford of late by various reports. The English forward's future at Old Trafford has come under immense scrutiny in recent days.

Rashford was missing from the matchday squad for the Red Devils' last two games, against Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur. While Ruben Amorim has brushed aside rumours of the 27-year-old's impending exit, it has been reported by Daily Mail that Manchester United are willing to let him go for £40m.

Rashford recently stated in an interview with journalist Henry Winter that he is ready for a fresh challenge. His comments have since sent the rumour mill into overdrive.

With Arsenal looking for attacking reinforcements in 2025, the Englishman has been named as an option. However, journalist Sami Mokbel has recently stated that the Gunners are not planning to move for Rashford.
