for a €30m fee in 2021, the striker failed to establish himself in Diego Simeone's plans. Despite making 17 appearances for the La Liga side this season, the 23-year-old failed to score a goal.
The 23-year-old Cunha joined Atletico from Hertha Berlin in 2021. Cunha is under contract until 2026. He only scored seven goals in all competitions last season. Only eight of Cunha's 29 La Liga games last season were as a starter.
During his three-year spell at Hertha, he scored 13 goals in 40 games. Cunha has played for Brazil seven times but hasn't scored for his country.
