"Liverpool are reportedly making Adam Wharton a top transfer target and are confident they will be able to convince him to join. The highly-rated young England international has been a key performer for Palace in recent times, firmly establishing himself as one of the top talents in the country. Wharton is also on the radar of Chelsea and Manchester United, as we've recently reported, but it seems Liverpool may be leading the race."
"Liverpool may well see Wharton as an upgrade on someone like Alexis Mac Allister in midfield, and they'd surely pay big money to get him. According to Fichajes, the Reds may have to pay as much as 65m for the former Blackburn Rovers youngster, though Football Insider have suggested he could even cost as much as 150m. Wharton could also surely be an ideal signing for this Chelsea project as they target the best young players in the world."
Liverpool have identified 21-year-old Adam Wharton as a top summer transfer target and are confident they can persuade him to join, offering a significant midfield role. Chelsea and Manchester United are also monitoring the England international. Wharton has emerged as a key performer for Crystal Palace and is widely regarded as one of the nation's top young talents. Crystal Palace have already lost key players and face a managerial exit, heightening the risk to their competitiveness if Wharton is sold. Reported valuation estimates for Wharton vary widely, with figures around £65 million up to suggestions of roughly £150 million.
