Liverpool wants Crystal Palace star Adam Wharton this summer, but the exaggerated initial valuation remains an area of concern.
Wharton maintained his position as a key player for Palace despite missing three months last season due to a groin injury.
The 21-year-old midfielder helped the Eagles secure their first-ever major trophy by beating Manchester City in the FA Cup final.
Wharton joined Palace from Blackburn Rovers in the January transfer window of 2024 and immediately impressed the Premier League audience.
The 21-year-old’s game intelligence, maturity and strong decision-making, along with his technical qualities and ball control, earned him a reputation.
Wharton prefers to operate as a deep-lying playmaker who is comfortable with both feet and capable of dictating the tempo.
Liverpool want Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton, but they are facing issues with the exagerrated initial valuation by the London club.
The Englishman is press-resistant and has a great engine to cover a lot of distance on and off the ball.
At just 21 years of age, Wharton is already well-built and has a lot of Premier League experience with Palace.
According to Daily Mail, Palace are demanding a price of around £60m for Wharton, with several top European clubs interested.
Sports journalist Francois Plateau reported that Liverpool have registered interest in Wharton but are not prepared to meet the initial valuation of Palace.
The 21-year-old presents a lot of promising aspects, from his qualities, age, style of play, to nationality.
