I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deepest apologies for my actions during the match against Bournemouth. I fully acknowledge that I lost control in a moment of frustration, and I deeply regret the red card I received.
I understand that my behavior was unacceptable, both on and off the pitch. As a professional, I am aware of my responsibility to the team, the supporters, and the game itself, and I failed to uphold those standards. I let down my teammates, the fans, and the club, and for that, I am truly sorry.
This incident is particularly painful for me because I know I have let myself, as well as everyone who believes in me, down. I have had the chance to reflect on my actions, and I can see now how my lack of discipline in this moment hurt the team’s chances and caused unnecessary disruption. I realize this isn’t the first time something like this has happened, and it’s clear I need to take more responsibility for controlling my emotions during the game.
I want to make it clear that I am committed to improving my conduct. I will work closely with the coaching staff and the club to better understand the areas where I need to improve, especially when it comes to managing my emotions under pressure. I will also consider additional steps, such as working with a sports psychologist, to ensure that this kind of incident does not happen again in the future.
Please know that I am fully dedicated to this club, and I will do everything in my power to repay the trust that has been placed in me. I can promise you that I will learn from this mistake and strive to be a better player and teammate moving forward.
I humbly ask for your understanding and consideration, and I hope that my previous positive conduct and my commitment to improving will be taken into account when reviewing this incident. I genuinely appreciate the opportunity to grow from this experience and come back stronger.
Once again, I sincerely apologize to the team, the supporters, and everyone who has been affected by my actions. Thank you for your time and understanding.
Yours sincerely, Matheus Cunha**

Given the last letter he sent to the FA regarding the ITFC incident, I doubt he would be that contrite. He'd find some other, pathetic, mitigating circumstance that the FA will lap up, pat him on the head and give him the minimal possible punishment.
Disgraceful behaviour, and he needs to give himself a good talking to.

Far more likely to be a handwritten apology along these lines:
“As I tried to get closer to Kerkez to make sure he was okay, I was suddenly surrounded by a lot of people. I felt like I was being shoved by the Bournemouth players, so I shoved Kerkez back in an effort to break away from them to protect myself. It was never my intention to come into contact with Kerkez and I certainly never meant to push him or kick him when I accidentally swung my foot towards him. I simply wanted to push him away from me to protect the Wolves fans. Then all of a sudden, I remember Kerkez got up again a̶n̶d̶ ̶c̶l̶e̶a̶r̶l̶y̶ ̶w̶a̶n̶t̶e̶d̶ ̶s̶o̶m̶e̶ ̶m̶o̶r̶e̶ and had his hands on my shirt, and I shouted “stop” but he kept hold of my shirt. Kerkez is much bigger than me and I was surrounded by a large number of people, mainly Bournemouth personnel, so I remember feeling quite threatened at the time. So in an effort to get Kerkez to let go of my shirt, in the heat of the moment I regrettably leant my head towards his. I know it was wrong to do this and I take full responsibility for my actions.”

They will accept that it is again clearly out of character too.

Lol. Brilliant parody of his letter after the ITFC incident. I was left entirely unimpressed by both his letter and the FA response. Expecting the same again.
Can’t believe I’ve copped a red card at Weymouth or whatever they’re called, for having my elbow bitten, my foot rolled on and my forehead poked by an opponent’s nose, before being manhandled from the playing field like some sort of hooligan.
Add that to the vicious attempt by a Norswich Town security thug to glass me with his spectacles a few months back and you can only imagine the fragility of my current mental state.
I trust you will rescind this latest injustice so I can help my mates rid the PL of these cocky upstarts, who are spoiling your product for the millions worldwide.
Cheers, Matty xx

P.S.
If Kerkez would like to pop into Specsavers for any pair of spectacles within their Basics range, the treat is on me.

Simple answer.
Dear FA. I'm fully committed to this league and wish to fully embrace English culture. My teammates explained to that on the first of each month you pinch and punch one another. I was simply embracing your traditions.

Jesus, not sure where I wasted more time. Reading this or bothering to type out a response
That's about 5 seconds work for ai. Copy and paste. So I certainly wasted no time. It was an attempt to see if that is how he created his original letter.
