Jarrad Branthwaite has the Premier League salivating. The Everton central defender, considered one of the greatest English hopes in his position, has still not received a new contract offer from his club. A situation which could benefit his pursuers, especially since the 1.95m rock has one of the smallest salaries on the Toffees side and could obtain a big upgrade by leaving the suburbs of Liverpool.

According to the Daily MailManchester City, Liverpool FC and Manchester United would carefully follow the unfolding of events surrounding the young English international (a selection). While Everton would demand 75 million euros for their nugget, the three PL leaders would only be willing to offer around fifty million euros for the 22-year-old defender. The matter could evolve during the next winter transfer window, which will open in a few days.
