Crystal Palace stopped Liverpool in their winning run when they defeated the defending champions 2-1 in round 6 of the Premier League on September 27. The highlight of the match was Adam Wharton - the young English midfielder who played brilliantly, controlled the midfield and caused many difficulties for Arne Slot's team.
Wharton's impressive form immediately made Manchester United fans excited. On social media, many opinions said that he was the missing piece in the "Red Devils" midfield.
One account wrote: “We are so bad with Bruno Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte, bring Wharton back now.” Another affirmed: “Wharton is very strong and young, this will be a worthy investment.”
According to journalist Ben Jacobs, MU put Wharton on the list of transfer targets, along with Brighton's Carlos Baleba. Notably, there is a "verbal agreement" between Wharton and Crystal Palace that allows him to leave in the summer of 2026, or even earlier depending on the situation. The expected fee is around 55-60 million pounds, a figure that can fluctuate according to the performance and assessment of the home club.
Wharton is only 20 years old but has quickly become a regular at Palace and is considered one of the most promising talents in the Premier League. Last summer, Real Madrid were closely monitoring the midfielder but have not made an official offer. If MU is determined to join the game, "Los Blancos" are expected to become the biggest competitor.
In the context of MU's midfield still struggling to find a stable formula, Wharton has emerged as a potential solution for the long-term future of the Old Trafford team.
