Manchester United and Real Madrid will clash again in the battle for Branthwaite

Manchester United has admitted defeat in the race for defender Jarred Branthwaite in the last transfer window, but are not going to give up on their intentions to sign the Everton player.

Details: According to teamTALK, the 22-year-old defender will again be the subject of interest from Manchester United and Real Madrid in the summer 2025 transfer window. It is believed that the likelihood of Branthwaite leaving at that time will be higher than ever. It is true that Everton intend to tie the defender down to a new contract. The current agreement runs until 2027.

Recall: Branthwaite is well acquainted with the head coach of the Spanish top club Carlo Ancelotti from his work at Everton. Manchester United made attempts to get the 22-year-old in the summer, but the price tag put on him by the Toffees, only caused at Old Trafford desire to evaluate the defender in a more reasonable price.
