£80M star sent message about potential move to Manchester United!
Liverpool legend John Barnes warned Everton ace Jarrad Branthwaite to be careful before a potential move to Manchester United.
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.
Barnes told mybettingsites.co.uk: ‘So what United have to do is to get that right before they’re talking about signing players for £70million and young players who are inexperienced.
‘He can’t go to United like Jadon Sancho went there for a big fee and the harmony isn’t right.
‘So yeah, I think that for any player they have to think hard about going to United. Particularly young players who are inexperienced.”
‘They have to think about whether they’re going to United at the wrong time. It’s a great club, but it just may be the wrong time.
‘And if they’re looking for young players to come here to change that situation, that’s not what’s going to happen. The unity within the club from top to bottom has to change, fans included.’
