My Take
What impresses me most about Matheus Cunha is the road he chose. Rather than building a comfortable reputation in Brazil first, he left for Sion in Switzerland at eighteen, betting on himself in a league few stars pass through. That detour shaped a forward who can also play as an attacking midfielder or winger, a versatility born of necessity rather than luxury. Now at Manchester United and in the Brazil squad, he carries that scrappy adaptability with him. I find players forged by unglamorous routes more interesting than academy darlings, and Cunha, still in his prime years, feels like a story that is still being written.
