JUST IN: Everton in the race to sign Hull City defender

According to Barry Cooper of Hull Live, Everton is monitoring Jacob Greaves of Hull City as a potential Jarrad Branthwaite replacement.

Manchester United has reportedly made a bid of £35 million to sign defender Branthwaite, an indication of their strong interest in him.

The Goodison Park administration bitterly rejected this deal, calling it “unacceptable” given Everton’s demand for £80 million.

United is still expected to return, though, and the England international might be allowed to go on if a more reasonable offer were made.

This would make room for the Toffees, and Sean Dyche appears to be considering Tigers defender Greaves as a like-for-like replacement in an effort to replace the 21-year-old.
