BREAKING: Manchester United on the brink of sealing deal with £65million star player

Man United are now inching closer to finalising the acquisition of Jarrad Brandthwaite, who could be persuaded to sign for a reasonable fee of £65 million.

The central defender’s personal terms have been reached with the Old Trafford club; however, the previously reported asking fee of £80 million has caused some concern.

Branthwaite is now on the brink of securing a transfer to Manchester United, according to the most recent update from the Financial Times.

The news source has indicated that the agreement may be finalised by the end of the current month.

It is reported that the negotiations between the Red Devils and the Toffees have progressed, and the Merseysiders are amenable to receiving offers of approximately £50 million to £60 million.

Nevertheless, the Goodison Park club is seeking an overall bundle valued at £65 million, which will be supplemented by specific objectives and add-ons.

Everton acquired Branthwaite from Carlisle for a mere £1 million in 2020. Therefore, they are poised to generate substantial profits from his sale.

The youngster made a significant impact in the Premier League last season after impressing on loan for Dutch Eredivisie powers, PSV Eindhoven, during the 2022-23 campaign.

Man Utd are on the brink of signing a talented central defender in the guise of Branthwaite, who is expected to replace Raphael Varane at the club.

Signing the English prodigy would be a positive gesture for Ratcliffe, as he must immediately fortify the backline.
