Manchester United is altering their transfer plans in order to sign a “outstanding” Everton player.

Everton’s core may be torn apart this summer in an effort to increase the club’s transfer budget. Since both Aremaou Onana and Jarrad Branthwaite are seen as extremely significant assets for the Toffees, this could result in the sale of both.

Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Barcelona, and Onana, a key midfield player, are all showing interest. Given this amount of interest, it may be difficult for Everton to hold onto him come summertime. Star defender Branthwaite is another player who will be difficult to hold onto, however his £75 million price tag may make his trade desirable. His most eager pursuers are the Red Devils, and a recent rumor has shown just how eager they could be.

Why is Jarrad Branthwaite United’s ideal signing?

The “outstanding” Branthwaite is of great interest to United, and an iPaper study explains why he is so high on their list. According to the article, United, under the leadership of Ineos and Omar Berrada, is approaching recruitment this summer with a data-led strategy.
