Tottenham, alongside several other Premier League heavyweights, is closely monitoring the situation of Wolves’ star striker Matheus Cunha.
Today, the Spurs are once again the talk of the town among fans, with the latest update on Radu Dragusin’s surgery coming through successfully.
Meanwhile, attention has also shifted to Ange Postecoglou, who seems to be under pressure as his position as Spurs manager is now in question, with rumours swirling about a potential replacement by the manager of Inter Milan.
Now, all eyes are on the Brazilian from Wolves, as Tottenham’s interest in signing Matheus Cunha is far from a new development.
The possibility of him joining the North London club dates back several months, but as is often the case, nothing has yet been finalised.
Tottenham, Arsenal, and Manchester United are among the clubs reportedly keeping a close eye on the Brazilian's situation.

Despite recently signing a new deal with Wolves, Matheus Cunha’s potential availability in the summer transfer window has drawn significant attention from top clubs.
Cunha’s recent performances have further solidified his reputation as a rising star in the Premier League.
After signing his new contract, he scored a crucial goal in a 2-0 win over Aston Villa, showing his continued importance to Wolves’ attacking play.
As quoted by Football London, Wolves' manager, Vitor Pereira, praised Cunha for his commitment and ability to perform under pressure: "He knows in the future he can play for the best teams in England, but he's committed with us.
"He has the conscience that it is very important if he leaves, to leave the club in the Premier League."
Cunha’s move to Wolves from Atletico Madrid included an initial fee that could rise to £35million, meaning his potential sale this summer could bring a substantial profit for the club.
According to reports from AS, Tottenham and other Premier League clubs will undoubtedly be keeping a close eye on his situation as the summer transfer window approaches.
Cunha recently extended his contract with Wolves until 2029, ensuring that he will remain with the club for the foreseeable future.
However, the new deal includes a release clause that could allow him to leave for around £60million this summer.
This release clause is regardless of whether Wolves maintain their Premier League status, which adds to the intrigue surrounding his future.
Although Cunha was heavily linked with a move in January, with Arsenal, Tottenham, and Nottingham Forest reportedly considering bids, Wolves were determined to keep their key player and rebuffed all approaches.
