Manchester United, Real Madrid learn Adam Wharton price

Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton has been linked with a move away from the South London club in recent months.

Adam Wharton is one of the best central midfielders in the Premier League right now, and he is on the radar of Manchester United and Real Madrid.

Meanwhile, according to a report by German outlet Fussball Daten, the two clubs will have to pay around €100 million to sign him from Crystal Palace in the summer transfer window.

Manchester United need Adam Wharton

The 22-year-old has been exceptional for the Eagles, and he is ready for the next step. Joining an elite club could bring out the best in him and help him fulfil his potential. Manchester United need a quality replacement for Casemiro, and Wharton could be ideal.

He will protect the back four and break up opposition attacking moves. The England international is also exceptional when it comes to controlling the game from the deep. Wharton is averaging 2.2 tackles won, 5 ball recoveries and 4.4 duels won per game.

The Crystal Palace star has all the tools to develop into a world-class midfielder in future, and Manchester United would do well to secure his signature. Although €100 million is a steep asking price for a young player, Wharton has the potential to justify the investment in the future.

Real Madrid also want Wharton

Meanwhile, Real Madrid could use more quality in the middle of the park and have their sights set on Wharton. Eduardo Camavinga has not been a guaranteed starter for them, and it seems the Frenchman is not a trusted option. He has been linked with an exit in recent months, and the Crystal Palace star could be the ideal replacement.

Real Madrid and Manchester United have the financial muscle to pay €100 million for the Englishman, and it remains to be seen which of the two clubs can get the deal done. Convincing the player to join should not be difficult.

The 22-year-old Crystal Palace mainstay is an elite talent with a bright future, and he will want to compete at the highest level. Joining a big club this summer would be the ideal next step in his career.
