The pursuit of Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton continues to draw interest from major European clubs following his successful performances in the Premier League. While Crystal Palace maintained its stance of refusing to sell the player during the recent summer window due to high valuations—estimated between £60m and £100m—interest from top-tier clubs remains persistent. Chelsea and Manchester City both expressed interest in the left-footed playmaker during the summer. Real Madrid continues to monitor his situation for potential future moves, with reports suggesting interest could extend as far out as 2027. Additionally, former Chelsea player John Obi Mikel has predicted that Manchester United will attempt to sign Wharton next summer, despite the club having recently reinforced its midfield. ~~Wharton,~~ Recent reports indicate that Liverpool FC is also maintaining interest as part of long-term squad planning. Liverpool views the midfielder, valued at approximately £75 million, as a player who ~~joined Palace from Blackburn Rovers,~~ could provide “tactical intelligence, composure, and authority” to their midfield. While Wharton has ~~become~~ not agitated for a ~~central figure in the club’s recent successes, which include winning both the FA Cup~~ move and maintains respect for Palace, reports suggest the ~~Europa Conference League.~~ club may find it difficult to retain him through upcoming transfer windows. Newcastle United is also expected to become active in the pursuit once an exit from Crystal Palace becomes more certain.
