Tottenham would be competing with Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United for the signing of young talent from the Premier League, says a report.
The buzz surrounding Adam Wharton is intensifying, with Premier League heavyweights such as Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur closely monitoring the 20-year-old midfielder’s progress at Crystal Palace, according to Fichajes.

Wharton has made a name for himself with his versatility and ability to influence games from the midfield, making him an attractive target for teams like Arsenal, who are keen to secure a long-term replacement for seasoned veterans like Jorginho and Thomas Partey.
With Declan Rice establishing himself as a key figure in Mikel Arteta’s midfield, Wharton could be the perfect complement, providing both defensive stability and the capability to control the tempo of matches.
Liverpool, on the other hand, has a pressing need to bolster their defensive midfield following Fabinho’s departure. They are actively seeking solutions for this pivotal position, and the young Crystal Palace midfielder would fit seamlessly into their playing style.
Manchester United is also in the race for Wharton, motivated by the necessity of finding a quality replacement for Casemiro, whose form has been inconsistent this season.
Tottenham Hotspur, meanwhile, are keeping a keen eye on the midfielder's situation, as they look to strengthen their own midfield after the departures of Oliver Skipp and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.
With his youth and potential, Wharton represents a long-term investment for Spurs, who could afford him the time to adapt and shine in the Premier League.
At the moment, Tottenham's midfield appears to be well-covered, but the Spurs are unlikely to remain indifferent to the prospect of signing a talent like Wharton.
