The tour will feature matches against West Ham United, Bournemouth, and Everton, among others. Cunha's inclusion in the starting lineup was seen as an opportunity for him to get familiar with the team's dynamics and tactics.
In a statement, Cunha shared his thoughts on his debut, saying he was "blessed" to wear the Manchester United shirt and was "hungry for more". He expressed gratitude to the team and fans for their support.
During the match against Leeds, Cunha had 26 touches of the ball, completed 92% of his passes, made one tackle, and one interception. He also won two fouls throughout the game.
Despite a strong individual performance, Cunha's debut was part of a larger team effort that struggled to find cohesion. Manager Ruben Amorim's tactical style is still being implemented, which may affect new signings like Cunha as they adapt to the team's system.
