Jarrad Branthwaite questioned as Man Utd make offerJarrad Branthwaite has been told he’s only had one good season by Manchester United icon Paul Ince.
The Red Devils are strongly interested in the defender and are widely reported to have submitted a bid to Everton over the last few days.
That offer, reported to be in the region of £35m, has been rejected.
But Ince is not convinced by Branthwaite.
“Jarrad Branthwaite has had a steady season in a team that struggled against relegation in Everton, and we’re talking about a player that came from Carlisle,” Ince told Bet365.
“He’s made great strides in such a short space of time so I think a move to Manchester United is a possibility. The problem is that United have signed players in the past that have had one good season.”
Branthwaite shone for Everton last season and was part of the extended 33-man preliminary England squad picked for the Euro 2024 warm-up matches. He made his senior international debut against Bosnia two weeks ago.
The 21-year-old was also excellent on loan at PSV the year before.
