Tottenham ‘confident’ in race for Everton star Jarrad Branthwaite – Sources

Tottenham are confident they can raise the funds for big-money deals this summer amid links with Everton star Jarrad Branthwaite, sources have told Football Insider.

A well-placed source has told Football Insider that funds “won’t be an issue” for Spurs in the off-season.

New technical director Johan Lange has set his sights on signing the best young talent at Tottenham since his appointment in October 2023.

The Dane has already made that a reality – bringing 18-year-old midfielder Lucas Bergvall to north London ahead of competition from Barcelona.

Spurs have been widely linked with Branthwaite after his Premier League breakthrough so far in the 2023-24 campaign.

Football Insider revealed earlier this month (5 February) that Man United are in pole position to sign the Everton defender ahead of the summer window.

Tottenham will have the funds to seal big-money potential Branthwaite deal

United boss Erik ten Hag and his recruitment staff have made the 21-year-old a long-term target.

But sources say Tottenham have the funds to join a potential Branthwaite race if they firm up their supposed interest this summer.

The England Under-21 star, who has been widely tipped for a senior call-up, has made 27 appearances across all competitions so far in the 2023-24 campaign.

He notched the equaliser for Everton as they held Tottenham to a 2-2 draw earlier this month (3 February).

Branthwaite only signed a fresh deal at Goodison Park in October 2023, but top Premier League sides are already preparing a move.
