Jarrad Branthwaite - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Creates rare chance Branthwaite generated one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 3-1 win against Coventry City. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 88th minute.

Impact Branthwaite created a rare chance during Friday's win, even though he's not much of an offensive threat. The defender was denied his clean sheet by a lone goal allowed, so in the end it was a pretty lackluster day for Branthwaite. He is an excellent defender though, and if Everton can start converting more clean sheets he'd have some decent upside.

Jobe Bellingham Earns First England Call-Up; Cole Palmer Left Out

Fit for starting role Branthwaite (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Friday's match against Coventry City.

Impact Branthwaite is back in the saddle as expected Friday, returning after a scare with a cramp in the last match. This does mean the Toffees keep a starting defender around heading into the international break, good news for a defender with a past full of injuries. His role shouldn't change anytime soon, proving to be a physical and solid defender in his role, helping his club to three clean sheets so far this season.

Expected to be available Friday Branthwaite (cramp) is expected to be available for Friday's Premier League clash against Coventry City despite being carefully managed following his early exit against Newcastle,...

Impact Branthwaite was forced off in the 82nd minute of Monday's 1-0 victory against Newcastle due to cramp, shortly after returning from a concussion that had sidelined him for two matches. The center-back has been carefully managed since that encounter, although his issue does not appear to be serious. His availability for Friday remains somewhat uncertain, but there is optimism he could retain his starting role alongside James Tarkowski if fully fit.

Forced off with cramp Branthwaite was forced off in the 82nd minute of Monday's 1-0 Premier League victory against Newcastle United due to cramp, according to coach David Moyes, per BBC Sport Merseyside...

Impact Branthwaite's substitution appears to have been precautionary after coach Moyes clarified that the defender was dealing with cramp rather than a more significant injury. The center-back had only recently returned from a concussion that kept him sidelined for two matches, making his ability to start and play 82 minutes an encouraging development. He contributed to Everton's clean sheet alongside James Tarkowski, recording three clearances, two blocks and two interceptions while also registering one shot on target and creating one chance. His performance provided a boost to Everton's defensive stability following his recent absence, and there is currently no indication that the cramp will affect his availability for the next fixture. Branthwaite has been a regular starter when healthy this season, and his return to the starting lineup should allow Jake O'Brien to continue operating in a more flexible defensive role.

Starting vs. Newcastle United Branthwaite (concussion) is in the starting lineup for Monday's match against Newcastle United.

Impact Branthwaite was reportedly expected back for Monday's game, but the star center-back will also anchor the defense at center-back alongside James Tarkowski while captaining the side. Branthwaite has 41 clearances, 12 blocked shots and 11 interceptions across seven starts this season.

Impact Branthwaite is nearing a return to competitive action after missing Everton's last two matches against Arsenal and Newcastle due to a concussion sustained during the defeat against Chelsea. The center-back was required to follow the mandatory concussion protocol, preventing him from featuring in Thursday's EFL Cup encounter despite making progress in his recovery. Coach Moyes' latest comments suggest that Branthwaite should be ready for Monday's league rematch against Newcastle, provided he completes the necessary medical assessments. His return would strengthen Everton's defensive options, with Jake O'Brien having partnered James Tarkowski in central defense during his absence.

Won't return in EFL Cup Branthwaite (concussion) is out for Thursday's EFL Cup match against Newcastle United.

Impact Branthwaite missed the previous EPL match against Arsenal and won't be available for this cup match either, as he remains on the concussion protocol. It remains to be seen whether he'll be available for Monday's game against the Magpies in the EPL, meaning Jake O'Brien is likely to start at center-back alongside James Tarkowski as long as Branthwaite remains out.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with concussion protocols Branthwaite has been ruled out for Saturday's Premier League clash against Arsenal as he remains in concussion protocols, according to the club.

Impact Branthwaite will miss Saturday's encounter against Arsenal after being placed in concussion protocols following Everton's 2-0 defeat against Chelsea. The English center-back played in that contest, recording one shot and eight defensive contributions, including a block to deny Jordan Henderson during the first half. However, his latest setback means he will be unavailable for selection until he completes the necessary concussion assessments and receives medical clearance. Branthwaite has been a regular presence in Everton's defensive setup this season, making his absence a significant blow ahead of a difficult matchup against Arsenal, with Jake O'Brien starting in central defense for that one. His availability for upcoming fixtures will depend on his recovery and progression through the required protocols, with no definitive return date established.

Unable to prevent Chelsea defeat Branthwaite had one shot (zero on goal) in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against Chelsea.

Impact Braithwaite denied Jordan Henderson in the first half with a block but was unable to prevent Chelsea's dominance in the second. The Toffees suffered their first Premier League defeat of the season as Pedro Neto scored a brace at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. Nevertheless, Braithwaite did venture forward and tried to test the goalkeeper with a shot but failed to register it on target. With eight defensive contributions and only two tackles, it was a performance worth forgetting for the English center-back.

He has recorded 36 clearances, 11 interceptions, 11 blocks and six tackles across those contestsl.

Missing due to reintegration program Branthwaite is not with his team for Wednesday's Carabao Cup match against Preston North End due to a reintegration program, according to his club.

Impact Branthwaite is missing from the team sheet for Carabao Cup action, although it is not due to injury, as the defender is being taken care of carefully following his hamstring injury to end last campaign. He is going through a planned reintegration program that leaves him out Wednesday, but the good news is that it doesn't appear to be a concern. He will likely be an option for league play come Saturday, but may miss out on some midweek matches moving forward for the next few weeks.

Sits out due to workload management Branthwaite will miss Tuesday's friendly against Newcastle United as part of planned management of his return from a hamstring injury but will resume full training before Saturday'...

Impact Branthwaite has steadily worked his way back from the hamstring injury that ended his last season, captaining Everton and logging 80 minutes at Stuttgart on Saturday after earlier starts against Bolton Wanderers and Hamburg, all signs of a smooth recovery. Missing tonight's game against Newcastle United in Edinburgh reflects planned management of his return rather than a setback, and he will resume full training at Finch Farm before featuring in the final pre-season match against LOSC Lille on Saturday. The clear priority is having him at full readiness alongside James Tarkowski in the heart of defense when the Premier League season kicks off on August 22, underscoring just how central he is to Everton's backline plans.

AUGUST 12 • ROTOWIRE

Sat for cautionary measures Branthwaite is not playing in Tuesday's friendly against Stoke City as a cautionary measure while following a planned reintegration into the squad, according to his club.

Impact Branthwaite started in a friendly for Everton on Saturday but will sit out Tuesday, as the defender is still being dealt with cautiously due to a hamstring he suffered at the end of the last season. That said, he is still training and doing well with his fitness, just not playing as they carefully deal with his health after a past of injuries. He will likely continue to appear here and there in the pre-season, set to be fit for opening day.

Impact Branthwaite's return to the starting XI is an encouraging sign after being held out of an earlier preseason friendly against Dundee as a precaution while recovering from a hamstring injury sustained toward the end of last season. His involvement confirms he has moved past that cautious approach, positioning him to build toward full match fitness as Everton continues its preseason preparations ahead of the 2026/27 Premier League season.
