£80M valued star puts Manchester United back on full alert after latest decision!
Everton star and Manchester United target Jarrad Branthwaite is refusing to sign a new contract, with his current deal running out in 2027.
Manchester United made two bids for Branthwaite, the first worth £35million with £10m in add-ons and the second worth £45m plus £5m in add-ons – the Toffees value him at £70m.
The centre-back agreed personal terms with Manchester United and was offered a deal worth £160,000-a-week, but in the end, the Red Devils decided to make the move for Leny Yoro after they failed to agree a deal with Everton for their star defender.
But according to The Daily Mail, the England international won’t pen fresh terms at Goodison Park unless the Merseysiders can match the Red Devils’ proposal, which is something they cannot do right now.
A potential move to Manchester United have wavered in recent weeks since the arrival of Yoro – But Man United still rate the defender very highly and could make a move for Branthwaite should he come onto the market this summer, or in the future.

Yoro was a brilliant signing for Manchester United – but we are sure that Branthwaite is a little disappointed he will not be making the move to Old Trafford
It could have been a dream move for the young man and the only thing that stopped a potential deal – is the amount of money that Everton were demanding for a player that has done nothing in the game.
They may want to keep Branthwaite – but he clearly has big dreams and will move away in the coming seasons – even if he does manage to agree a new contract at the club in the coming weeks.
But he needs to keep focused and not dwell too much on what could have been – he is far too good to not develop over the next few seasons.
