Manchester United have been put on high alert with Everton expecting to lose star defender Jarrad Branthwaite this summer. Despite being under contract until 2027—with an option for another year—Goodison Park officials have accepted that the 22-year-old is likely to leave amid a looming squad overhaul.
United, who failed to sign Branthwaite last summer, are expected to reignite their pursuit, especially as they build a squad suited to Ruben Amorim’s tactics. Everton rejected a significant bid from another Premier League club on January deadline day, showing Branthwaite’s value exceeds £50 million. Tottenham are also monitoring the situation and may enter the race if Cristian Romero departs.
Everton, with just 11 senior players under contract for next season, could require up to eight new signings ahead of their first campaign at Bramley Moore Dock. Manager David Moyes insists Branthwaite can become an England regular without leaving, citing past examples like Jagielka and Baines. However, Everton’s top brass believe his exit is inevitable.
Here is the skill highlight video of Jarrad Branthwaite.
