Man united have returned with a second bid for Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite of £45million plus a further £5m in add ons.
United have made their move as Mason Greenwood's transfer to Marseille progresses in a deal worth £27m plus a sizeable sell on.
Branthwaite's failure to make Gareth Southgate's final 26-man England squad for Euro 2024 has meant he is able to negotiate his future without fear of European competition getting in the way.
United are looking to rebuild this summer after it was confirmed that Erik ten Hag would be staying on as manager under the leadership of Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS.
