United had hoped to be able to pay the transfer fee over five years rather than the two specified in his contract, a notion that was swiftly rejected.

Cunha has now been granted permission by Wolves to travel to Carrington for his medical ahead of his move.

The Brazilian enjoyed the most prolific season of his career, scoring 17 goals and providing six assists in his 36 game across all competitions.

Ruben Amorim’s side are set to have a busy summer following their disastrous season with many players expected to leave and be replaced.
