Crystal Palace Make Decision on Selling Adam Wharton in Summer
Crystal Palace have decided to sell Adam Wharton if a big offer comes in the summer transfer window, with Manchester United, Liverpool, and Manchester City all showing an interest, according to Alan Nixon.
Wharton has started to attract plenty of interest from clubs over the last few years, with the likes of Man Utd, Liverpool, and Man City waiting patiently for him to potentially become available. The England international will undoubtedly be hoping to play regularly for a Champions League-level club in the future, and that’s something Liverpool and Man City are likely to be able to offer.
Manchester United aren’t competing in Europe at the moment, but Ruben Amorim’s side will be hoping to get back into the Champions League by the time the next campaign comes around. It’s unclear how much Palace are going to be demanding, but there’s no doubt there is plenty of interest.
Crystal Palace Ready to Sell Adam Wharton
According to journalist Nixon, Crystal Palace will sell Wharton at the end of the season if a multi-million bid comes in. Liverpool, Manchester United, and Manchester City are all interested in the England international, while he also had admirers from abroad.
Palace are now ready to cash in on Wharton, which would help them in their efforts to tie Jean-Philippe Mateta down to a new contract. The Eagles are hoping to give Wharton a new deal with a release clause, but it’s unlikely to prevent any potential exit.
It’s unclear at the moment the kind of figure that Palace and Wharton will agree on in terms of an exit clause, but they’ll undoubtedly be hoping to recoup a huge fee in order to allow him to head through the exit door at Selhurst Park.
Wharton Makes Sense for Multiple Premier League Clubs
The signing of Wharton, praised as a ‘superstar’, would certainly be a boost to a host of clubs around Europe, including Man City, Man Utd, and Liverpool.
Manchester United are crying out for a midfielder to dictate tempo from deep, especially with Ruben Amorim clearly not rating Kobbie Mainoo. Liverpool have been performing well below par this season, so there’s no doubt a player of Wharton’s calibre would be a smart addition to Arne Slot’s side.
Bringing in Wharton for Man City would be interesting, considering they have Rodri, but it’s no secret that Pep Guardiola likes to have plenty of players throughout his squad capable of playing at the highest level.
