Man Utd to submit new transfer bid for Jarrad Branthwaite

The Red Devils are reportedly plotting to submit a new bid for Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite after they lost summer signing Leny Yoro to a foot injury that will keep him out of action for the next three months.

United earlier made a £35m, plus £8m bid for the English defender but Everton are holding out a steep price of £70m to steer out any potential suitors this summer. Jarrad Branthwaite was crucial in Everton’s survival from Premier League relegation last term.

However, according to reports, Everton could be persuaded with an offer of £50m for the England international.
