Brazilian forward, Matheus Cunha said his “dream” had become a reality after completing a £62.5m move to Manchester United.
United activated a release clause in Cunha’s Wolves contract this month.
The deal, which was subject to a visa and a medical, has now been completed.
Cunha has signed a five-year contract, with the option of a further 12 months.
“It is hard to put into words my feelings about becoming a Manchester United player”, he said.
“Ever since I was a child in Brazil watching Premier League games on TV at my grandmother’s house, United was my favourite English team and I dreamed of wearing the red shirt.
“I want to thank my family and everyone who has helped me make that dream a reality”.
Cunha scored 31 goals in 76 games in all competitions for Wolves after joining from Atletico Madrid in 2023.
“Bringing in Matheus was one of our main priorities for this summer, so we are delighted to have completed his signing so early in the window”, said United director of football Jason Wilcox.
After United scored a record low of 44 goals in 38 Premier League matches last season, bolstering the attack was a clear priority for manager Ruben Amorim.
Although not a traditional centre-forward, Cunha scored 27 goals in 65 league games for Wolves in the past two seasons.
Winger Antony and striker Rasmus Hojlund have arrived at Old Trafford for big transfer fees in recent years and struggled to adapt to the Premier League.
Newcastle United, who will play in the Champions League next season, were interested in signing Cunha.
