Madrid is looking to refresh their backline as Antonio Rudiger, David Alaba, and Eder Militao begin to show signs of aging.
Their shortlist reportedly features left-sided centre-back Branthwaite alongside Liverpool’s Ibrahima Konate and Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen, the latter with a £50M release clause.
Everton values Branthwaite at around £75million after rejecting Manchester United's bids of roughly £50M, while Liverpool, Manchester City, and Chelsea remain interested.
Despite being contracted until 2027, Everton have yet to open negotiations on a new deal for the 22-year-old, per The Mail.
