Tottenham still considering Jarrad Branthwaite

According to the (page 67), Tottenham Hotspur are still tracking Everton defender Jarra🐻d Branthwaite this summer transfer window.

The 21-year-old has been heaꦇvily linked with a move to Manchester United in recent weeks, though, they deem him to b♔e too expensive after seeing their first bid rejected.

Branthwaite is expected to cost any forthcoming suitor £75m, so it remains to be seen if Tottenham will formalise their interest with 𝄹an offer.

Manchester City also 🍎remain keen on the former PSV loanee.

Jarrad Branthwaite statistics

It’s easy to see why so many top club♏s are interested in signing Branthwaite when you take a look at his impressive statistics.

The 2002-born ranks in the top 18 per cent for aerial duels won per 90 com꧋pared to his positional peers acr🌄oss Europe.

Further, he sits in the top 18 per cent for interceptions and 20 per cent for tackles, only amplifying how dominant he is 𒈔at the heart of defence.

Branthwaite is 💛aꦿlso extremely proficient on the ball and being a natural left-footer, he’d give potential suitors great balance.

He’๊d be a brilliant acquisition for Tottenham but it won’t be an easy deal to do by any means.
