The Toffees have been rejecting offers for center half Jarred Branthwaite throughout the summer.

Liverpool are said to be plotting a controversial transfer move for an Everton player.AdvertisementAdvertisement

Manchester United had two bids rejected, but now there is a suggestion Liverpool may be interested.

Per Liverpool Echo, the rumors may not be very accurate, as the two clubs have not spoken about Branthwaite.

Everton rejected £45M plus add ons from United, before the Red Devils went on to sign Leny Yoro and Matthijs De Ligt instead.

Given they wanted close to £80M from United, the price for bitter rivals Liverpool will be even higher.
