Liverpool not likely to sign a midfielder this summer Lewis Steele reports that while Liverpool do not currently plan to sign a new midfielder, they are interested in Adam Wharton, but his £100m price tag is prohibitive to a move to Anfield this summer. “Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton has long been linked with a move but the Selhurst Park club would want a huge fee of around £100m – and there is no indication Liverpool are interested anyway.
“Many other midfielders have been mooted but it seems more likely than not that the Reds do not sign a midfielder this window.” Wharton at Liverpool would be a dream I totally understand Liverpool not being willing to spend £100m on Wharton, but that won’t stop me dreaming of seeing him at Anfield in the future. The English midfielder recently shared a video of himself with Steven Gerrard’s shirt from the 2005 Istanbul final, which sent fans online into overdrive speculating about a move to sign him.
With Andoni Iraola now in charge at Liverpool, it’s difficult to imagine a midfielder who currently plays in the Premier League that would be better suited to his style of football. Michael first started supporting Liverpool after Istanbul in 2006.
