AC Milan have joined Newcastle United in the race to secure the services of Everton star Dominic Calvert-Lewin. The player has attracted the attention of many clubs, and due to the fact that his current contract with Everton expires in June next year. This means that the English club risks losing the player at zero cost, if they do not reach an agreement during the January market.
Everton chiefs are doing their best to get the player to sign a new contract, but it seems his departure from Goodison Park is only a matter of time. Newcastle are in need of reinforcements in attack as Alexander Isak has long been linked with a move away from St. James Park. Calvert-Lewin would be perfect for the attacking department, and this also applies to AC Milan. The Italians have been monitoring the striker for some time, and are hoping to bring him close to zero cost at the San Siro at the end of the season. At the same time, Roma are also closely following Dominic Calvert-Lewin. However, the capital club is said to have other alternatives on its radar, in terms of attack.
Meanwhile, Everton risks losing another very important player. It is about Jarrad Branthwaite who is being monitored by Real Madrid. The centre-back has an active contract with Everton until 2027, and the Englishmen are in a better position to negotiate with the clubs who want his card. Branthwaite is on Real Madrid's list of targets in the January transfer window as the player is seen as the perfect replacement for Eder Militao, who will be sidelined until the end of the season.
Real Madrid will have to fight off some of the biggest clubs in the Premier League to bring Jarrad Branthwaite to the Bernabeu, with the player also on the radar of Manchester United and Liverpool.
