Cunha signs new Wolves deal after sealing victory over Aston Villa
When Matheus Cunha went over to the Jack Hayward Stand at the end of this crucial victory for Wolves, he celebrated wildly. He pulled at the club crest and kissed it. He pumped his chest and banged it with his fist. He also mimicked writing a signature to the crowd. What could it mean? By the end of the night Wolves had announced a renewal with their Brazilian talisman who may just keep them up. The contract to 2029 makes him Wolves’ highest-paid player and has a release clause that activates in June.
Vítor Pereira confirmed in words what Cunha had been signalling by gesture. “Matheus is a special player and he’s committed with us,” the head coach said. “He knows that in the future he can play in the best teams in England, but he is committed with us and he understands that it is very important that if he leaves the club he does so with the club in the Premier League.” He declared himself “very happy and proud” of a win that took his side out of the bottom three and ended a run of four defeats on the trot.
