Scores penalty in shootout win
Cunha played 30 minutes in Wednesday's friendly win over Leeds United and scored a penalty in the shootout, the club posted.
Analysis: Cunha scored three goals across five appearances for Brazil at the World Cup and finished last season with 10 Premier League goals and two assists across 33 appearances in his debut campaign at United. This early cameo, and successful penalty, is an encouraging sign heading into the new 2026/27 Premier League season, and he should hold a decent role in United's attack this year as coach Michael Carrick looks to build a more productive campaign around him following a solid first year in Old Trafford.
Clears illness
Cunha cleared the illness that kept him out of Manchester United's traveling squad for the PSG match in Gothenburg and is fit to train, the club posted.
Analysis: Cunha scored three goals across five appearances for Brazil at the World Cup and finished last season with 10 Premier League goals and two assists across 33 appearances in his debut campaign at United. His clean bill of health now shifts focus to preseason preparations, and he should hold a decent role heading into 2026/27 as he looks to build on a productive first year at the club.
