Branthwaite contemplates his future at Everton amid national team omission

Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite made his debut for the England national team under Gareth Southgate. His 28-minute appearance in a friendly against Bosnia and Herzegovina is his only stint with the Three Lions. However, it seems he is aiming for more.

Details: According to Sky Sports, the 22-year-old defender is pondering whether Everton is the right club for him. Branthwaite himself understands that being in a top club offers a greater chance to break into the England squad.

There are just over two years left on his contract with Everton, although it includes an option to extend for another year, and he is ready to discuss new terms, with the club keen on him extending the deal. Yet, no actions have been taken.

Recall: It was previously reported that Everton might sell Branthwaite to facilitate the transfer of Maxime Estève from Burnley. The Toffees' defender is attracting interest from Manchester United.
