Jarrad Branthwaite has revealed the role former Everton director of football Marcel Brands played in luring him to PSV Eindhoven.
Brands, now back at the Dutch club where he previously worked between 2010 and 2018, oversaw the defender’s January 2020 move to Goodison Park after just nine League Two matches for his home city side Carlisle United. And he has also been crucial in overseeing the 20-year-old’s season-long loan switch to the Eredivisie.
Branthwaite told PSV’s website : “I am happy to be here. PSV is a very big club, which already feels like a family. The people make me feel welcome and the facilities are top notch. I can't wait to get started here.
