Cunha also expressed his emotion and gratitude:

Since I was a child in Brazil, watching Premier League matches on television at my grandmother’s house, United was my favorite English team and I dreamed of wearing the red shirt. I want to thank my family and everyone who has helped me make that dream come true.
