Team Talk reports on Spurs' interest in signing Jarrad Branthwaite from Everton. Spurs have an interest in signing Jarrad Branthwaite from Everton, though striking a deal will not be easy and they are currently behind London rivals Chelsea in the race, after a hefty bid is soon to be lodged.
According to Team Talk, Chelsea are showing a strong interest in Everton's centre-back, Jarrad Branthwaite, as they seriously contemplate making a move for him. Enzo Maresca is reportedly eager to bolster his defensive lineup, and Branthwaite is a prominent name on Chelsea’s transfer shortlist. The club sees him as an alternative to Dean Huijsen, who recently signed with Real Madrid. Everton holds a strong negotiating position and plans to demand a substantial fee for Branthwaite, estimated to be between £70 million and £75 million. The club is not currently pressured by the Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR), and Branthwaite's contract runs until 2027, with an option for an additional year. Everton's manager, Moyes, is reportedly intent on retaining Branthwaite and centering the team around him.

Everton refused Manchester United's offers last summer and are expected to do the same with Chelsea. However, Chelsea's financial capability might test Everton's resolve.
