No club bias here, unlike others on this thread. 70m gets you a developed and experienced international and he's not that yet. 50m I'd argue is reasonable at this point in his career.If he stays at Everton another year and continues his trajectory other clubs will come in. Then you could argue 70m. Chelsea paid £70m+ for Wesley Fofana from Leicester, and he'd played less top level games than Branthwaite, that's where the big price demand is coming from. Chelsea huh....

Given Everton’s well documented financial troubles it’s understandable for Man Utd to be testing the water with low bids, standard practice in business I’d have thought. I'm sure it is standard practice, the bit that makes me laugh is all these United fans screaming that Everton's 70 mil valuation is just because of the "United Tax" rather than the fact it doesn't matter who wants him that's what they want as they have to give 10 - 15% of it to us. So in order to buy a suitable replacement they need around 60 or 70 to have enough left after paying us to sign said replacement

Looking at the pre-season stuff coming out of Finch Farm, Branthwaite seems pretty happy at Everton. I guess he also wouldn't have signed a 4 year deal otherwise.

He also wouldn't have reportedly agreed terms with Manchester United if he didn't want to go... Anyway, the "soft" deadline (where clubs have to submit their accounts to comply with the profit and sustainability rules) has passed, so it's probably in Everton's interest to let this rumble on until late in the window now.

Who put the 35m valuation on him? Surely that is up to the club that owns him and not the likes of transfermarket.com I guess you must be a MU fan if you think it is perfectly reasonable, nobody else would. No club bias here, unlike others on this thread. 70m gets you a developed and experienced international and he's not that yet. 50m I'd argue is reasonable at this point in his career.If he stays at Everton another year and continues his trajectory other clubs will come in. Then you could argue 70m. In all honesty he now should have had games for England, only a clown has stopped that from happening. If you think Everton should accept 35m, hand us 10-15% of that, who are they buying that will be as PL ready as that and with the potential to still get better? In essence they sell to Man Utd and become worse off on the pitch and financially, please tell me why they should do this? 70m covers our money and the replacement, if Utd want him pay up, it isn't Utd Tax either it is English homegrown Tax as you look to fill your quota on that score, you can't just buy all foreign players and that puts the price up on English players moving to other PL clubs. Grealish is a great player, Villa didn't want to sell but City triggered the clause, he wasn't worth that fee, Rice isn't worth 105m either and look at the fees that are going on youth players currently, of course, that is a scam but it will push the price of a Branthwaite higher, hopefully, he plays another seasons and then EFC get 70-100m and Carlisle get a huge chunk of money.

If you read and believe the papers, Utd or City sign 35 players every summer. Click bait articles in the main or come and get me pleas leaked to shit journalists by an agent desperate to cash in.

How on earth can his value only be £35m ?! Clean your screen, and check again, it might be £85m, whic makes more sense.
Somewhere in this thread, someone posted up some of his stats from last season, and I think Everton had the 2nd best defensive record or something ? And he had some really good numbers as well, so £35 seems ridiculous.
Everton will be mindful, that a chunk of it has to go to us, and now they don`t need to sell him, they can wait this out, and make sure they bank a serious wedge from any sale, so hopefully they keep him, and he has another season like the one he`s just had, and over the next 12 months, England have a manager who knows what they`re doing, and picks him !

Then you could argue 70m. 50m seems about right for his level of experience. But then you’ve got to add on 10m a piece for the fact he is English and left footed Think Everton are right to hang on for a bigger fee. Hopefully another big team joins in and starts a bidding war

I don't pay much attention to what is reported, you're right it's click bait and gossip. However, I'm sure Branthwaite won't turn a move to Manchester United down if the clubs agree a fee.

I'm sure players must have to think a little harder about it now, it has been a graveyard for players the last 10 years or so, they aren't joining a title winning team anymore bit more like the 80's a cup run team. You might get him looking and thinking another season at EFC and I might get a chance to replace balsa wood legs Stones at City, though in reality you'd expect him to switch from EFC to Utd tradionally at least, though a smart new ground is on its way and OT is crumbling to ruins

All the noises coming out of the Branthwaite camp sound like he’s very keen on a move to Old Trafford.
