Real Madrid have reportedly joined an increasingly competitive race for Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton, demonstrating the rapid rise of one of the Premier League’s most impressive young midfielders.
The 21-year-old England international has quickly established himself as one of the most complete midfielders in the Premier League since arriving at Selhurst Park.
This is why big clubs like Manchester UnitedManchester City and Liverpool are showing interest in the English midfielder.
Adam Wharton has admirers at Real Madrid
At the Bernabéu, Wharton is seen as a potential tactical solution rather than just an addition to the team.
Madrid’s recruitment team reportedly view him as an ideal alternative to Aurélien Tchouaméni, offering balance and control in deeper midfield roles, while also possessing the passing range to progress the ball quickly through the lines.
His arrival could also allow Arda Güler to operate in more advanced offensive areas, where the Turkish star is most effective.
However, Real Madrid are far from alone in their admiration. Wharton’s performances have attracted sustained interest from several Premier League clubs.
As mentioned above, Man City, Liverpool, Man United and Chelsea are all monitoring his situation closely and the race to sign him this year is expected to be intense.
From Crystal Palace’s point of view, they are under no immediate pressure to sell. Wharton is tied to a long-term contract and the club see him as central to their sporting ambitions.
Palace sources insist any potential transfer would only be considered if it represented exceptional value.
La Liga giants reportedly prefer summer move
While Premier League clubs might find it easier to structure a deal with add-ons and installments, Real Madrid would likely prefer to move this summer, once their squad planning is clearer and resources can be allocated accordingly.
The Spanish giants are also keen to maintain balance in a midfield already packed with elite talent.
Staying in the Premier League offers familiarity and guaranteed minutes, while a move to Madrid would represent a significant jump in terms of profile and pressure.
With several offers expected on her table, Wharton has a difficult decision to make regarding her career.
