Liverpool line up £50m Adam Wharton transfer as Crystal Palace and England star, 21, sets out conditions

LIVERPOOL will try to tempt Adam Wharton to quit Crystal Palace in a £50million-plus swoop.
Anfield’s transfer team are focusing on the midfielder whose passing talent could make Arne Slot’s team tick.
Wharton has established himself as a Premier League player of real promise since his move from hometown club Blackburn in 2024.
And his ability to see the picture and deliver quick balls to attackers marks him out as a future elite star.
Wharton, 21, could be interested in a return to his native north west but the snag will be whether he gets enough game time to keep him on an upward path.
He forced his way into England’s Euro 2024 squad after joining Palace but has been frustrated by injuries this season, missing three months after a groin operation in November.
That has restricted his appearances in a campaign that should have seen him take off for club and country.
If Liverpool can sell a plan to Wharton - especially with Champions League football available - then he may take the chance.
Palace, facing huge interest in their players this summer, are sure to demand a huge fee for Wharton who still has more than four years left on his contract.
Blackburn are also due a 15 per cent cut of profit over the £18m Palace paid up front for their former academy star 15 months ago.

Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are also admirers but Wharton has not played often enough this season to make their interest concrete.
Wharton has featured heavily since his return from injury, playing in every game since he got back fit.
