United’s performances have not lived up to expectations, despite the fact that they made substantial investments on players such as Mason Mount, Andre Onana, and Rasmus Hojlund during the summer of 2023.
As a result, United is presently in sixth place in the Premier League, six points behind Tottenham Hotspur, who are in fourth place.
As they make preparations for the future, United, which is owned by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his INEOS team, are looking to strengthen their center defense.
Jarrad Branthwaite, who plays for Everton, is one of the players they are interested in signing.
A number of clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Real Madrid, are also interested in signing Branthwaite.
However, the battle for his signature is severe.A number of players, including Antonio Silva of Benfica, Jean Clair Todibo of Nice, and Leny Yoro of Lille, are also being watched by United in addition to Branthwaite.
Yoro is said to have also caught the eye of Real Madrid, according to reports.Everton may be willing to split ways with Branthwaite in exchange for a significant price during the upcoming transfer window, according to sources from Football Insider.
In the midst of Everton’s ongoing financial woes, the club is actively working to raise finances, and both Branthwaite and Amadou Onana have been highlighted as possible departures.
There are a number of financial issues that the club is now facing, including a potential purchase by 777 Partners, a deduction of ten points for violating the Profit and Sustainability regulations, and the ongoing struggle to prevent being demoted from the Premier League.
