Manchester United have reportedly agreed on personal terms with Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite, setting the stage for a possible summer transfer.
The next step for the Red Devils is to negotiate a transfer fee with Everton, who are asking for £70 million for the 21-year-old England international, according to The Times.
This acquisition would be a significant addition for Man United, especially following Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s endorsement of Branthwaite as his top pick for a new central defender this summer.
