Jolean Lescott has predicted a huge future for Jarrad Branthwaite.

Speaking ahead of Everton’s draw with Sheffield United, Lescott praised the 21-year-old and predicted him to become an ‘exceptional’ player at Goodison Park.

Branthwaite joined Everton from Carlisle United in 2020 but failed to establish himself as a regular in the first team, making only ten appearances in the Premier League prior to this season.

While the youngster also enjoyed a loan spell with Blackburn Rovers, it was his stint at PSV last term that earned him plenty of praise for his excellent performances.

Branthwaite made 36 appearances in all competitions for PSV last season and was the subject of serious interest from the Dutch club eager to bring him back this summer, while Manchester United were also linked.

However, the Toffees were desperate to keep hold of Branthwaite and he was brought into the starting line-up to replace the struggling Michael Keane against Wolves.
