Tyler Morton, the 22-year-old England under-21 midfielder, is reportedly linked with a surprising Premier League move as Crystal Palace monitors him as a potential replacement for Adam Wharton. Morton, who came through Liverpool's youth system, was sold by Liverpool to Olympique Lyonnais in early August 2025 for a fee of £15 million. After making 14 senior appearances for Liverpool, mostly outside the Premier League, Morton spent two seasons on loan in the Championship with Blackburn Rovers and Hull City before his permanent move to Ligue 1.

Morton has already made his mark at Lyon, featuring regularly in the French top flight after the club successfully appealed against relegation due to financial issues. His performances and pedigree from Liverpool’s academy have drawn attention from Premier League sides, with Crystal Palace rumored to be interested in securing his services as they seek to reinforce their midfield.

Prior to his transfer to Lyon, Morton played a vital role in England’s U21 European Championship victory, notably providing the assist for the winning goal in the final against Germany during extra time. His combination of youth international success and experience at multiple competitive levels makes him an attractive target for Premier League clubs looking for a versatile midfielder.

This potential reunion with the Premier League at Crystal Palace highlights his ongoing development and value despite his recent move abroad. The club’s interest indicates their intent to strengthen the squad with young talent familiar with the league's demands, possibly positioning Morton for a return to England’s top tier in the near future.
