Everton could be forced to sell Jarrad Branthwaite before June 30 to address their financial difficulties, even if the anticipated takeover by 777 Partners materializes. The 21-year-old center-back, a target for Manchester United, is valued at £80 million, a fee the Toffees may struggle to reject given their financial predicament.

Despite manager Sean Dyche’s desire to retain Branthwaite for another season, Everton’s financial struggles, including breaching the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules, could necessitate his sale. The club has already been docked eight points for violations in the last two assessment periods. Branthwaite recently scored in Everton’s crucial 2-0 win over Liverpool, a result that all but secured their survival while denting Liverpool’s title hopes.

Everton’s hierarchy would prefer to sell other players like midfielder Amadou Onana, but Branthwaite’s market value makes him a more likely candidate for a sale. Dyche praised his players after the win over Liverpool, highlighting their resilience and mental strength amid external pressures. He also emphasized the importance of the victory in light of recent criticisms and praised his team’s ability to respond positively to challenges.
