Manchester United have reportedly taken a major step forward in their pursuit of Everton star Jarrad Branthwaite.
After deciding that they will keep the faith in Erik ten Hag rather than rolling the dice on a new manager, the Red Devils have now turned their attention to shaking up their ranks this summer.
United are expected to bolster their ranks at both ends of the pitch, with signing a striker to provide cover for Rasmus among their priorities.
Ten Hag is also keen to sign at least one centre-back this summer, with Everton star Branthwaite identified as a top target this summer – though he has admirers elsewhere in the Premier League.
United appear to have stolen a march on their competition though, with The Times reporting that they have agreed on personal terms with the England international’s entourage.
