Manchester United abandon Jarrad Branthwaite move

Manchester United have decided to abandon their move for Jarrad Branthwaite following the renewal of Harry Maguire’s contract, according to the Daily Mail.

Amorim had the decision to renew the England international’s contr💦act until 2026 and his form under the new 🐟boss has been very impressive.

The Red Devils are now looking to sign a younger defender rather than paying෴ big money to land a ready-made like Bܫranthwaite.

The Everton defender would have cost around £70 millionไ and he is♌ wages would be around £160k-per-week.

The Premier League club will instead use those funds elsewhere in the team to fix the more glaring 🌳holes like potentially a new striker.

Do Manchester United need another central defender?

Manchester United now have a strong pool of 👍central defenders and Amorim will need to determine whether he 𒁃has enough for his back-three system.,

Currently, United have Lisandro Martinez, Matthijs de Lig𝓰t, Leny Yoro and Harry Maguire, whilst Noussair Mazraoui and 🌃Luke Shaw are also options.

Amorim෴ has been favouring Martinez, De Ligt, and Maguire as his choices for his defence with Yoro often being introduced later in the game.

♉So for now, there are bigger ♎issues in the team that need addressing before United look to bring in another central defender.
