Atlético de Madrid is one of the clubs that has had certain complications due to the system applied by Diego Simeone. Backed many times by achievements and experience in the position, the coach of the 'colchoneros' let go of Matheus Cunha, who did not enjoy continuity in the squad. The Brazilian will arrive at Wolverhampton, on loan, to play in the first division of England.
According to recent information from market expert Fabrizio Romano, the payment would amount to around 40 or 50 million euros. Of that amount, 10% would go to Hertha Berlin, his former club, as they reserved that part of a future transfer in order to benefit.
Matheus Cunha is thus embarking on a new adventure in an unknown league for him. Before joining Atlético in August 2021, the attacker played for Hertha Berlin, RB Leipzig, and Sion in Switzerland. The player was not one of the favorites of the coach and embarks on a new experience in the field.
His father spoke about Simeone
Carmelo Cunha, in statements collected by 'Globo Esporte', criticized the playing style of the Argentine coach: "In that Simeone system, there is no way for any forward to prosper. It's very difficult," he mentioned when asked about the strategist.
About the proposal to change clubs, the player's agent affirmed that he has received constant calls from Lopetegui - Wolves' coach - so he feels secure in terms of playing time and confidence to be able to return to the Brazilian national team.
"The Atlético? The proposal to buy Matheus appeared, and they couldn't say 'no.' Perhaps the owner of Atlético wanted him to stay, and so did the fans, but they had to take advantage. He was already well settled in Madrid, but it's part of the job. It will be an arrival with a lot of prominence, and we only wish him luck. May he have a great career in England," he concluded.
