£70m-rated Jarrad Branthwaite not “distracted” by links to Man United

Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite has admitted that he is not distracted by links away from Goodison Park as Man United and Real Madrid target the 21-year-old ahead of the 2024/25 campaign.

Interested clubs have a strong chance of landing the England star if the Toffees are relegated from the Premier League but even if the Merseyside club survive, their financial issues may force them to part ways with the centre-back if a big offer…
