Official: Matheus Cunha Joins Manchester United in £62.5m Deal

Manchester United have officially announced the signing of Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers for a reported £62.5 million, marking the club's first major signing of the summer under new manager Ruben Amorim. The deal is pending the completion of visa and registration requirements, but Cunha has already passed his medical and agreed personal terms. United released a brief statement confirming the agreement, welcoming the 25-year-old to Old Trafford. A Standout Season in the Premier League Cunha arrives following the best individual season of his career, having scored 15 goals and provided 6 assists in 33 Premier League matches — a tally that comfortably outshone any Manchester United player last season. The Red Devils finished the campaign with just 44 goals, their lowest total in the Premier League era. Across all competitions, Cunha netted 33 goals in 92 appearances for Wolves after joining from Atlético Madrid in January 2023. Financial Structure and Future Role United are set to pay the transfer fee in three instalments of £20.85 million over two years, after Wolves reportedly rejected a five-year payment plan. Cunha could also inherit the iconic No. 10 shirt previously worn by Marcus Rashford, whose future remains uncertain. Ambition and Motivation Cunha has made no secret of his desire to take the next step. Back in March, he said: 'I've made it clear I want to fight for titles and big things. I know my potential.' His departure from Wolves was emotional. In a message to fans, he wrote: 'This was the best season of my life. I made mistakes, I got things right, but I gave my all for this club. Thank you for the love.' A New-Look Attack in the Making With Rasmus Højlund underperforming and players like Garnacho, Sancho, Antony, and even Rashford linked with exits, Amorim is aiming to rebuild United's frontline. Cunha is expected to play a pivotal role in that overhaul, with United also tracking new attacking targets including Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford and Liam Delap from Ipswich Town.

Bouanga's extra time strike takes LAFC into Club World Cup

Ammon News - Denis Bouanga scored an extra-time winner to lift Los Angeles FC to a 2-1 victory over Club America in a Club World Cup qualifying playoff match at the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles on Saturday. The winger, who had orchestrated much of LAFC's attacking output in the match, scored the winner in the 115th minute after unleashing a shot that took a wicked deflection on its way into the net. After a goalless first half, Mexico's Club America were awarded a penalty in the 62nd minute, when referee Wilton Sampaio went to the pitchside monitor and ruled that Mark Delgado had fouled Erick Sanchez. Substitute Brian Rodriguez, who made 64 appearances for LAFC between 2019 and 2022, stepped up to the spot and fired his effort past goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. LAFC pressed hard for an equaliser and their pressure paid off when Igor Jesus headed home from a corner in the 89th minute to score his first goal for the club and take the match into extra time. The Major League Soccer side go into Group D alongside Brazil's Flamengo, Tunisian club Esperance de Tunis and Premier League side Chelsea. The playoff was held to decide the 32nd team in the Club World Cup after Club Leon were kicked out of the tournament in March due to an ownership rule breach. The Mexican club also had their appeal rejected at the Court of Arbitration for Sport. The expanded 32-team Club World Cup runs from June 14 to July 13 in the United States with prize money of $1 billion at stake. Reuters

Palmer inspires Chelsea to 4-1 win over Betis in Conference League final

Ammon News - Chelsea sparked into life in the second half as they came from behind to claim the Conference League trophy with a 4-1 victory over Real Betis on Wednesday, their revival inspired by the creativity of Cole Palmer at the Wroclaw Stadium. Goals from Enzo Fernandez and Nicolas Jackson - both set up by the excellent Palmer - plus late strikes from Jadon Sancho and Moises Caicedo secured the silverware after Betis went in 1-0 up at halftime thanks to an early Abde Ezzalzouli strike. The 23-year-old Palmer's two assists in five minutes during the second half turned the match around for Premier League club Chelsea and his efforts saw him named Player of the Match. The victory means Chelsea are the first team to have won all three European competitions, having lifted the Champions League twice along with two Europa League trophies in their history. They have also won the now defunct Cup Winners' Cup. "I am very happy. I was a little bit frustrated in the first half because I think we approached the game in the wrong way," Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca told TNT Sport. "In the second half we played much better." The result had no bearing on European qualification for next season, with Chelsea having secured a Champions League spot and Real Betis a Europa League place via their domestic leagues. Even before the match started, Betis fans set off green flares, their vibrant glow embodying the fervour and historic pride of the club's debut appearance in a European final. However, Betis appeared nervous in the opening minutes before they went ahead when Isco found the unmarked Ezzalzouli at the edge of the box in the ninth minute, giving him plenty of time to break the deadlock with a powerful low shot. Betis nearly doubled their advantage minutes later when Marc Bartra's long-range effort forced Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen to tip the ball over the bar. Johnny Cardoso then received a perfectly weighted pass that put him in an ideal position to score another goal for Betis, but a moment of hesitation allowed Chelsea defender Benoit Badiashile to block his attempt. SECOND-HALF TURNAROUND In the first half, only one team had been in the ascendancy as Betis pushed forward and Chelsea were outplayed. However, it was a different story in the second period as Chelsea seized control, dominating midfield and orchestrating a series of attacks that left Betis scrambling. The pressure bore fruit in the 65th minute when Fernandez slipped between two defenders to head home a pinpoint Palmer cross for the equaliser and ignite a roar from the Chelsea fans. Five minutes later, the match had completely turned around when Palmer cleverly turned his marker near the byline and again delivered a precise cross that enabled Jackson to bundle the ball into the net off his chest and put Chelsea ahead. Sancho effectively ended the contest in the 83rd minute by firing into the far corner and Caicedo put the icing on the cake with the fourth goal in stoppage time to delight the fans and secure the London club's seventh major European trophy.
