Manchester United are looking to add both Matheus Cunha and Liam Delap to their squad in the summer transfer window. Ruben Amorim has prioritised the addition of a striker and an attacking midfielder, with the pair identified as top targets for their preferred positions.
The duo are not only proven in the Premier League, but they both have release clauses in their current contracts and are viewed as attainable options even without Champions League qualification. Cunha insisted on a £62.5 million release clause when he signed a new Wolves contract earlier in the year, while Delap will be available for £30 million when Ipswich are relegated from the English top-flight.
It means United already know exactly how much money they need to buy the two players this summer, and they might already have shirt numbers in mind for the pair as well. Here is a look at the current options available to them and any other signings.
