Per talkSPORT, new manager Ruben Amorim preferring a 3-4-3 formation makes the move even more likely.
United will be using three center halves in all games moving forward, given Amorim’s focus on always using a back three.
They had bids of £35 million and £45 million rejected for Branthwaite last summer.
Whether the Toffees lower the valuation of Branthwaite remains to be seen, especially if they remain in the Premier League.
