Manchester City are reportedly keen on signing 21-year-old Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Manchester City scouted 21-year-old Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton last week, and it will be interesting to see if they decide to make a move for him in the coming months.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool keen on the player as well, and it remains to be seen where the English midfielder ends up. The 21-year-old has established himself as a key player for Crystal Palace, and he is certainly good enough to play for the top teams in the country.
Manchester City need more quality and depth in the middle of the park, and the Englishman would be the ideal acquisition. Manchester City have struggled in the absence of Rodri this season, and they need more options if they want to fight for major trophies consistently.
Adam Wharton would be a long-term investment for Manchester City, and he could develop into a key player for the club. He is unlikely to be a cheap acquisition, and Manchester City will likely have to pay a premium for him. However, the English international has the potential to justify a significant investment in the long run.
Arsenal, Chelsea, and Liverpool keen on signing Adam Wharton
Arsenal need more quality in the midfield, and they have been linked with players like Martin Zubimendi. However, Wharton could be an excellent acquisition for the Gunners if they can get the deal done. He will add control, composure and defensive cover to the side.
Similarly, Chelsea could use more depth in their squad, and the 21-year-old could form a quality partnership with Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo. Finally, Liverpool are looking to bring in a quality defensive midfielder, and the Crystal Palace star certainly fits the profile.
The Englishman could complete Liverpool’s midfield alongside Ryan Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister. All four Premier League clubs will be exciting destinations for the youngster, and it remains to be seen where he ends up. Whoever ends up signing him could have a future star on their hands.
