According to reports, Manchester United and Chelsea could be the two main teams to watch Race for Adam Wharton’s signature.
The Crystal Palace and England midfielder is said to be ‘loved’ by key figures at Old Trafford as a big move looks inevitable for him sooner or later.
according to TEAMtalkUnited will be determined to snap up any Chelsea bid for Wharton, who is “loved” by Ruben Amorim and his staff.
The report goes on to suggest that Wharton’s asking price could be as high as £70m, and that getting him out of Selhurst Park in January will not be easy.
as i am Report to the daily briefing here Earlier today, I understood that Palace *wouldn’t* be selling Wharton mid-season, despite United looking for a midfielder as there is a chance Kobe Mino could leave the club.
Can Man United or Chelsea win the race for Adam Wharton?
It will certainly not be easy to get a deal done for Wharton, with Palace sure to try their best to keep hold of the talented youngster for as long as possible, while other big clubs could also join the race for his signature.
As also published earlier today, Wharton is wanted by Real Madrid As they look at a number of top midfielders after missing out on Martin Zubimendi.
Still, Chelsea would surely be a tempting project for Wharton, as the Blues’ current owners have put a lot of emphasis on building around talented young players like himself.
However, at the same time, CFC already have Enzo Fernandez and Moise Caicedo in midfield, so it remains to be seen if Wharton will get much playing time as a starter.
United may prove to be the more reliable option for Wharton as they are in desperate need of a new midfielder and would likely be more than happy to be able to build their squad around him.
