As per a report by Give Me Sport, Wolves are hoping to sign the Arsenal-linked midfielder to replace the Manchester United-bound attacker. The Leicester City star has done quite well in the Premier League despite their relegation, and he could be available for a fee of around £22 million.
Wolves will be able to recoup a substantial amount of money from the departure of Cunha, and it remains to be seen whether they can get a deal for El Khannouss across the line. The player will want to compete at the highest level, and moving to a Premier League club will be quite exciting for him. He will not want to play in the championship next season.
Wolves could provide him with the opportunity to continue to impress in the Premier League next season. His impressive performances have attracted the attention of Arsenal as well. It will be interesting to see if Arsenal decide to compete with Wolves for his signature. They are undoubtedly one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to join them will be hard to turn down for any player. They have the resources to pay £22 million for the playmaker as well.
Meanwhile, Cunha will look to make his mark at Manchester United and establish himself as a player for them. He has been outstanding for Wolves this season, and he’s one of the main reasons they managed to survive in the Premier League. It will be interesting to see if they can replace the Brazilian adequately during the summer transfer window.
Manchester United have struggled in the attack this past season, and they need quality attackers. The Brazilian will add creativity and goals to their side, and his versatility will be an added bonus. He is capable of operating anywhere across the front three, and he will add some much-needed cutting edge in the final third.
As far as El Khannouss is concerned, he could improve Wolves and Arsenal next season. It will be interesting to see where he ends up.
