Crystal Palace star prepared to turn down Real Madrid transfer interest
By Kian Long
Real Madrid have been keeping a keen eye on Crystal Palace. Surprisingly, the London-based club has been a fine producer of some impeccable talent. Just taking a look at the new Bayern Munich signing Michael Olise signing, along with other respected players such as Eberechi Eze and Marc Guehi, Palace is certainly a goldmine for upcoming talent.
Real Madrid have already been linked with a move for Marc Guehi in this summer transfer window, however, Carlo Ancelotti is not interested in just one Crystal Palace coup. Indeed, he would like to sign one of Marc Guehi's teammates, with or without Guehi himself making the move.
Crystal Palace star prepared to turn down Real Madrid transfer interest
According to a report from The Sun, Adam Wharton is wanted by Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Man City, three of the biggest clubs in the world. However, despite the interest from the big three, the player would like to remain at Crystal Palace to continue his development.
It must be said that not much has been reported on Real Madrid's interest in Adam Wharton. Real Madrid always have a radar for the best upcoming talent, with Wharton certainly in that calibre, however the fact remains that Madrid have never made a concrete move to show their interest.
It wouldn't come as much of a surprise if Real were interested in signing Adam Wharton, nevertheless. After all, with Toni Kroos retiring, it is more than possible that Carlo Ancelotti could sign a new midfielder this summer transfer window.
Wharton is 20 years old and he is playing as one of the most consistent midfielders in the Premier League. Therefore, he could certainly be a player for Real Madrid to consider in the future. However, for now, he is making the respectable and understandable decision to remain at Crystal Palace, where he is guaranteed game time to develop into a potential world beater.
Do you think Real Madrid should sign Adam Wharton?
