The supporters of Manchester United and Tottenham have stopped looking at the Premier League table. There will be no relegation, that’s the only thing that happens, the rest is anyway a league season that goes into the club’s “Hall of Shame”. The bright spot is the Europa League, of course, where both clubs are through to the quarter-finals. It turns out that the match here also affects the fight for one of the ball island’s most sought-after centre-backs.
Manchester United worked hard to sign Jarrad Branthwaite over the past year, but Everton refused to negotiate a price. Although there has been less talk about the centre-back at Old Trafford in recent months, the 22-year-old is still on the wish list of the United management. Branthwaite is the very profile of this generation of United players – apart from the price. At Tottenham, the Everton player has also been on his wish list, especially as Real Madrid get ready to snatch Cristian Romero this summer.
So then we have the Premier League’s 13th and 14th best club fighting for centre-backs who are in 15th place. Is it really relevant for Branthwaite to leave Everton with David Moyes at the helm of a club in chaos?
The English ink Sun reports strong interest from United and Spurs, but that Branthwaite is determined to move to a club with a Champions League ticket.
This means that for both Man Utd and Tottenham, the Europa League must be won with a CL ticket as a prize, the club should be in a position to persuade Branthwaite.
