Crystal Palace may consider selling Adam Wharton to Real Madrid in 2027

Crystal Palace remains unwilling to facilitate a departure for Adam Wharton during the current window, but the club could be prepared to entertain offers starting in 2027. Real Madrid maintained interest in the England international throughout the summer while scouting for a central midfielder to dictate play. Although the Spanish club did not secure a new signing for the position before the recent transfer deadline, scouts continue to monitor the 22-year-old’s progress. Manchester City and Chelsea also pursued the midfielder earlier, though Manchester City’s interest has potentially waned following their own squad adjustments. Chelsea remains a possible competitor for the player’s services when the market opens next year. Wharton continues his tenure at Crystal Palace while Real Madrid evaluates whether to pursue the midfielder as a future candidate for their roster.
