Tottenham Hotspur remain keen on improving their defensive options in the coming weeks and they have identified Jarrad Branthwaite from Everton as a potential target.
A report claims that the recruitment staff at Tottenham have identified the 21-year-old as an option in January, and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham can secure an agreement with the Toffees. According to Football Transfers, Branthwaite is valued at £75 million.
Branthwaite is a talented young defender with massive potential and he will be hoping to establish himself as one of the best defenders in the Premier League. A move to Tottenham would be a step up in his career and he would get to compete at a high level with them.
It is no secret that Spurs are in desperate need of defensive reinforcements, and the 21-year-old Everton ace could be the ideal option for them. They could help the 21-year-old improve with coaching and experience. Although the reported asking price seems quite steep, Branthwaite could justify the investment in the long run.
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham prepared to pay £75 million for the talented young defender.
Meanwhile, the report claims that Tottenham are keeping tabs on the Genoa defender Radu Dragusin as well. The 21-year-old Romanian defender has attracted the attention of Tottenham with his impressive performances, and it remains to be seen who they end up signing eventually.
It is fair to assume that the Everton defender is likely to cost a lot more than Dragusin in the coming weeks.
