Newcastle join race for in-demand Branthwaite
Newcastle United are allegedly preparing to rival Manchester City and Manchester United in the race to sign Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite.
During a season where the Toffees are having to focus their attention on off-the-field matters as much as action on the pitch, Branthwaite has been the shining light of their campaign.
Having impressed during a loan stint with PSV Eindhoven, the 21-year-old has returned to Goodison Park to make 25 starts in the Premier League, scoring two goals.
Points deductions have played their part in moving Everton to 16th place in the table, yet they possess the fourth-best defence in the top flight alongside Manchester United.
Branthwaite has played a key role in that, but the performances have only led to a first England call-up and an increasing amount of admirers elsewhere.
