Matheus Cunha signs, £50m statement - Manchester United's dream line-up with three new signings

The new-look Club World Cup format means that this summer's transfer window will officially open for business as soon as this Sunday.

This summer's window is shaping up to be the biggest Manchester United have ever faced, with the club prepared to sell any member of the squad. Players under contract ahead of next season have been informed that none of them are safe from the axe.

With that in mind, departures are likely to outweigh the number of new arrivals this summer. Alejandro Garnacho has been told he can leave and Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Antony have been identified as priority sales.

Amid a lack of European football next season, United will not need to manage a squad as big as they have this season, meaning they are unlikely to require the same number of incomings as outgoings.

Nevertheless, there is no doubt that head coach Ruben Amorim needs to add fresh blood and injections of quality, particularly in attacking areas. United struggled for goals domestically this season and desperately need to improve their attacking output ahead of next term.

It is looking increasingly likely that Wolves ace Matheus Cunha will be drafted in as the club's first signing of the summer. The Brazilian has been identified to fill one of the two playmaker positions and United are expected to trigger his £62.5million release clause.

As reported by the Manchester Evening News in April, Cunha is "optimistic" about joining United and is keen to make the move to Old Trafford. He scored 17 goals in 36 games for Wolves this season, including 15 in the Premier League, meaning only seven players netted more league goals than him.

Having played as a No.10 at Molineux, the former Atletico Madrid man is a suitable fit for Amorim's 3-4-2-1
