Amorim sets sights on Branthwaite to bolster Man Utd squad

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim is already looking ahead to the next transfer window, with Everton's Jarrad Branthwaite emerging as a key target. The 21-year-old central defender has been impressing at Goodison Park in recent seasons, drawing significant interest from top clubs, including the Red Devils.

Branthwaite has caught the eye with his solid performances in the Premier League, showcasing his maturity and composure beyond his years. Amorim, known for his tactical acumen, is keen to bring in a young, versatile centre-back who fits his vision for the club's future.

Everton are unlikely to let go of Branthwaite easily, with the defender still under contract at Goodison Park. However, Amorim’s ambitions for United could make the move appealing for the young Englishman, who has a bright future ahead of him in the English top flight.

As Amorim continues to plan his next steps at Old Trafford, the pursuit of Branthwaite could be one of his first big moves in the transfer market.
