Liverpool targets Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite

Liverpool is interested in signing Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite during the next summer transfer window. Everton has valued the 24-year-old England international at £80 million, noting him as one of the most promising center-backs in English football.

Liverpool seeks to strengthen its defense due to the aging profile of Virgil van Dijk and ongoing injury concerns regarding Joe Gomez. While Manchester United and Real Madrid have also been linked to the defender, Everton is reportedly unwilling to sell unless their financial valuation is met.
