According to the "Sun" report, Manchester United forward Mateus Cunha will appear in Manchester this Saturday local time to co-host the local Christmas light-lighting ceremony with the famous "Coronation Street" actor Sam Aston.
The British media mentioned that Cunha revealed in the interview his deep connection with the club. He has been a Manchester United fan since he was a child and regards Rooney as his idol.
Since Premier League broadcasts were not available at home when he was a child, he would go to his grandma’s house to watch Manchester United games every time, which became a precious childhood memory. Although Cunha has only scored one goal against Brighton this season, his active involvement in the community and diligent performance on the field have won recognition from fans.
The lighting ceremony will also feature musical performances and cartoon characters, making it a highlight of the Manchester festival.
