Leny Yoro is joining Man United for a fee rising to €70m after the club had lower offers rejected for Jarrad Branthwaite.
Manchester United's agreement to sign Leny Yoro has only emboldened Everton's stance on Jarrad Branthwaite.
Branthwaite, 21, is valued at between £70m and £80m by Everton while the 18-year-old Yoro is joining United for an initial £52m. United sources cited a budget of "tens of millions" behind their opening offer of £35m plus £8m in add-ons for Branthwaite last month.READ MORE: Ten Hag sounding like Mourinho in pre-season is good for United
Yoro was omitted from the France Under-23 squad for the Olympics in Paris later this month while Branthwaite was cut from Gareth Southgate's provisional England squad for the European Championship. Branthwaite attained his first cap against Bosnia and Herzegovina last month.
