Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton is attracting major interest, with Real Madrid now offered the chance to enter a growing race that already includes several Premier League heavyweights.
Wharton, who joined Palace from Blackburn Rovers in January, has quickly made an impact at Selhurst Park and his form has not gone unnoticed. Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea have all been linked with the 20-year-old as they monitor his progress.
Real Madrid have also been made aware of Wharton’s situation, with the Spanish giants offered the opportunity to rival those English clubs if they decide to move. The midfielder’s rise since his switch to south London has put him firmly on the radar across Europe.
Palace are understood to be relaxed about the attention for now, but Wharton’s profile continues to grow as he establishes himself in the Premier League. With interest building from both England and Spain, he is shaping up to be one of the most watched young midfielders heading into the next transfer window.
