Aston Villa, Tottenham, Newcastle United vying for Adam Wharton
Premier League trio Aston Villa, Tottenham Hotspur, and Newcastle United vying for Crystal Palace star Adam Wharton.
Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, and Newcastle United are gearing up for a potential summer bidding war over Crystal Palace’s talented midfielder, Adam Wharton. The 21-year-old, who has impressed since making the switch to Selhurst Park, is now firmly on the radar of some of the Premier League’s top clubs.
Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou is reportedly keen to bolster his squad further, despite securing Mathys Tel on an initial loan deal in January. Tottenham’s interest in Wharton comes as part of a broader effort to reinforce their midfield, with recruitment chiefs at Hotspur Way monitoring the England international’s progress closely.
However, Postecoglou is not alone in his admiration. Both Unai Emery’s Aston Villa and Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United are also tracking Wharton, making it a highly competitive chase ahead of the summer transfer window.
While Crystal Palace were keen to retain Wharton in January, slapping a hefty £60 million price tag on him to ward off interest, the summer could present a new challenge. With multiple clubs vying for his signature, the Eagles may struggle to keep hold of their midfield star according to Give Me Sport.
