Wolves can forget Cunha by signing a “sensational” star of 27 million pounds sterling

Despite their difficulties at certain times this season, the Wolverhampton Wanderers were quite consistent in front of the goal. They are currently sitting in the middle of the peloton with regard to the goals scored in the Premier League, and their 51 strikes represent more than seven clubs.

According to Nocestat, the old gold has overloaded in their expected objectives by counting this quarter.

The metric currently has the Vitor Pereira team at 42.83 XG, which means that they have marked 8.17 more objectives they should have. It is also the greatest overput of the expected goals this season by any premier league club, and at a certain distance.

If there is a man who helped them to outperform too much, it is undoubtedly the mathematics Cunha.

The form of Cunha this season and its future in wolves

It was another incredible campaign for the old gold Talisman Cunha. Their number 10 was sensational for the second consecutive year, helping to keep them in the Premier League and drag the club through difficult times on the field around Christmas.

The 25 -year -old, who is Olympic gold medalist in Brazil, won 15 goals and has managed six assists in 31 Premier League games this season. His 17 goals all competitions are most in the club, with Jorgen Strand Larsen the only other two -digit player.

He achieved excellent performances, including a goal and two assists against Leicester City just a few weeks ago. However, his most important was perhaps a goal and a pass against Manchester United in December, in a 2-0 Molinine victory.

However, the former gold striker, who has become a molinine star in the last two seasons, may not be able to call himself a Wolves player much longer.

A few days ago, Fabrizio Romano reported that “the discussions remain underway” so that Manchester United sign it this summer, which explained that “the agreement remains at advanced steps”, which suggests that it will be done soon enough.

It does not seem that Cunha remains in the wolves beyond this season, so they will have to replace his goals. They were recently linked to someone who could do exactly that.

Replacement of Cunha Ideal of Wolves

If Cunha loves Molinuex, who seems likely at this stage, then a shock for the Atleto Madrid striker, Alexander Sorho, who has already played in the Premier League for Crystal Palace, could be on the cards for the wolves.

ATRURÉ OTEFSIDE reported earlier this week that he has attracted the interest of the Premier League ”, with Wolves, West Ham United, Newcastle United and Aston Villa all linked to a move. The price is not clear at this stage, but it cost 27 million pounds sterling in the Spanish last season, so it could well be at the same time.

If old gold is looking for someone to help him forget to lose Cunha, Sorloth could be this guy.

It was excellent for Atleti in 2024/25, scoring 17 goals and winning two assists in 32 appearances. Earlier in the season, Dougie Critichley described it as “sensational”, and it’s easy to see why.

The Norwegian recently made the headlines for scoring four incredible goals in 30 minutes in the 4-0 victory of the Liga of Atli against Real Sociedad. After only 11 minutes, he already had a hat -trick, in one of the most catchy performances of the season.

It is for reasons like this, to find out why Sorho could be the perfect man to enter Cunha’s shoes. There are statistics, via Fbref, who suggest that he can face the mantle to mark coherent objectives for old gold.

For example, it has an average of 1.09 goals and 0.55 goals per shooting by 90 minutes. Compared, Cunha has an average of 0.54 goals and 0.37 goals per shooting on the target at each match.

Previously, the surface of Wolves on the expected objectives has been referenced, and it is certainly something that stands out for Soully. He monitors the expected goals of 0.28 per game this season, showing that he can also help maintain such a record.

There is no doubt about this, Cunha would be a big loss for old gold. However, replacing it with such a clinical player as a sorloth, which can maintain such an impressive objective rating rate would be an excellent deal.
