Andy van der Meyde has criticised Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite and advised the PSV loanee to aim for a return to English football when the market reopens.
Branthwaite has earned promising reviews for his performances in the Netherlands and totted-up 36 matches for PSV in all competition for this season During that time, the centre-back has also contributed four goals and two assists while helping his defensive team0mates keep 12 clean sheets.
However, despite the Eredivisie giants making no secret about their plans to target thw 20-year-old permanently, that proposed move has hit a major stumbling block with manager Ruud van Nistelrooy - a champion for him - stepping down with immediate effect.
