""I think he could go abroad and play [for Madrid] because the tempo of his game is so good on the ball,""
""One thing I'd always say with him is he always wants to look forward, always wants to pass forward. I think he's a fantastic individual. He's got so much ability. I've said it many times, he's one of my favourite players in the Premier League at the moment, and it's a player I admire a lot.""
""I want him to stay at Palace for the next few seasons. But evidently, I think me and all Palace fans know one day, he will go and play for one of the elite clubs, like Barcelona or Real Madrid. I think that style of football would suit him more as well.""
Adam Wharton is a 21-year-old central midfielder who has become a key player for Crystal Palace under Oliver Glasner. He helped Palace win last season's FA Cup and the Community Shield this term. Wharton has three England caps and leads Palace midfielders this Premier League campaign for successful passes into the opposing half (120) and passes into the final third (56). His forward-thinking passing, tempo on the ball and overall ability have generated widespread transfer speculation linking him to top clubs. Clinton Morrison praised Wharton's style, suggested elite clubs like Barcelona or Real Madrid would suit him, and lauded manager Oliver Glasner and striker Jean-Philippe Mateta.
