Manchester United have upped their game with a stunning £50m bid for Everton’s rising star, Jarrad Branthwaite! 💰🔥 The Red Devils are determined to bolster their defense, eyeing the young talent to bring solidity and future promise to Old Trafford. With this improved offer, United fans are buzzing with excitement, anticipating a new era of defensive strength. Stay tuned for more updates on this thrilling transfer saga!
Manchester United recently made a second offer for Everton’s defender Jarrad Branthwaite, reportedly amounting to £45 million with an additional £5 million in potential add-ons. This comes after an initial bid of £35 million plus add-ons was rejected by Everton last month.
Sky Sports News reported that Everton viewed the initial offer as significantly below their valuation of Branthwaite, who they consider a crucial part of their squad. Despite this, United are persisting in their pursuit of the defender, highlighting their focus on strengthening their defense following the departure of Raphael Varane from Old Trafford.
Branthwaite, who made 35 Premier League appearances for Everton last season, was not included in England’s preliminary squad for Euro 2024. Everton remains firm on their stance, expected to decline the latest offer as well.
The summer transfer window for the Premier League and Scottish Premiership opened recently and will close on August 30 at 11 pm UK time in England and 11:30 pm in Scotland. This adjustment aligns the deadline with major European leagues, following discussions with leagues in England, Germany, Italy, Spain, and France.
