"Both the Spanish heavyweights admire the 22-year-old midfielder's playing style and quality and are, therefore, weighing up the possibility of making a move for him in the summer transfer window. From a Barcelona perspective, the move appears unlikely given the number of high-level midfielders already in the squad and the likely transfer fee involved."
"As for Real Madrid, they are in the market for reinforcements in midfield, despite having a number of options as those in the squad have failed to fill the void left by the likes of Toni Kroos and Luka Modric."
"Apart from Barcelona and Real Madrid, the report claims that Premier League teams like Manchester United, Liverpool and Manchester City are also interested in the midfielder, which could further increase his price."
Barcelona and Real Madrid are reportedly considering moves for Crystal Palace and England midfielder Adam Wharton during the summer transfer window. Both clubs admire his playing style and quality. However, Barcelona's interest seems improbable given their abundance of midfield options including Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Gavi, Marc Bernal, and Marc Casado, plus backup options like Dani Olmo and Eric Garcia. Real Madrid, meanwhile, actively seeks midfield reinforcements to fill gaps left by departing players like Toni Kroos and Luka Modric. Premier League clubs Manchester United, Liverpool, and Manchester City also express interest in Wharton, potentially driving up his transfer fee. Barcelona is unlikely to pursue an expensive midfielder signing.
