Gabby Agbonlahor<\/strong> has urged Jarrad Branthwaite to show his worth over a whole season after agreeing a bumper new Everton deal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The former Aston Villa striker, speaking exclusively to Football Insider<\/strong>, backed elite sides to take a “closer look” at the 21-year-old if he gets a good full season under his belt at Goodison Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everton announced<\/a> on Friday that Branthwaite had penned a new four-year deal running until 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Football Insider <\/strong>revealed last Saturday (30 September) that Everton were set to hand Branthwaite a bumper new contract<\/a> and sources have said that he has been handed a big pay rise that catapults him into the next bracket of earners at Goodison Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The England Under-21 international, who had previously been set to be out of contract in June 2025, is the subject of interest from Man United and other Premier League sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Branthwaite<\/a> has started each of the last five Premier League games for Everton alongside James Tarkowski at the heart of the Merseysiders’ defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Carlisle United academy product played his first full season of senior football on loan at PSV last term, making 37 appearances as they won the Dutch Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Agbonlahor told Football Insider<\/strong>\u2019s Ewan Kingsbury: \u201cAt this stage, he needs to focus on getting that consistency.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe\u2019s shown he is a good defender, but I don\u2019t think he\u2019s at the level where Man United would go out and buy him.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe needs a whole season where he\u2019s not out the side and he\u2019s putting in good performances most weeks.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Everton\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThen, I\u2019m sure, teams will come and take a closer look at him.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut he can\u2019t get carried away with a few good games. Now he has signed the new contract, he needs to show his worth over the whole season.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
