Tottenham plans bid for midfielder Adam Wharton amid transfer talk

Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly preparing to make an offer for Adam Wharton, a 22-year-old midfielder from Crystal Palace. The interest comes as Liverpool failed to finalize a deal for Yan Diomande, with RB Leipzig rejecting an initial £87m bid. Fulham has also had a £17m bid for Chibuike Nwaiwu from Trabzonspor turned down. In addition, Everton, Tottenham, and Ipswich are eyeing Cameroon forward Karl Etta Eyong from Levante this summer. Clubs like Celtic are open to offers for Arne Engels, and Leeds is pursuing Shea Charles and Julian Brandt as potential signings.
