Manchester United Bids £45m for Everton's Jarrad Branthwaite

Everton values the young defender at over £70m, creating a potential impasse in negotiations.

Manchester United's offer includes £35m upfront and £10m in add-ons.
Everton may need to sell players due to financial difficulties, but they hold a firm valuation on Branthwaite.
Branthwaite has shown promise in the Premier League and was close to making England's European Championship squad.
United's tight transfer budget means they might pursue other targets if Everton doesn't lower their demands.
Branthwaite is keen on the move, but United has alternatives like Marc Guéhi and Jean-Clair Todibo in mind.
