Manchester United and City Vie for Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton
Manchester United and Manchester City are set to battle it out for the signature of Crystal Palace's promising young midfielder, Adam Wharton. The 20-year-old has been turning heads in the Premier League with his mature performances, drawing interest from the top clubs in England.
Reports indicate that Manchester United have been closely monitoring Wharton's development and are prepared to make a substantial offer to secure his services. Meanwhile, Manchester City, known for their strategic acquisitions, are also keen on bringing the England U21 international to the Etihad Stadium, believing he could complement their existing midfield options.
Wharton's admiration for Manchester City's Rodri and his fit with Pep Guardiola's style of play have been noted as factors that could sway him towards the reigning champions. However, the allure of being a key part of Manchester United's midfield reconstruction under new management cannot be underestimated.
The transfer fee is expected to be around £70 million, reflecting Wharton's high potential and the competitive nature of the transfer market between the two Manchester giants.
