Tottenham plot raid on London rivals for star who could become a “real top-class player” | OneFootball

Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.

The 21-year-old has been a key player for the Eagles ever since he joined the club and Tottenham are keen on securing his signature. According to Football Insider, they are interested in the talented young midfielder, but he is unlikely to be a cheap acquisition.

The player has a long-term contract with Crystal Palace and they are unwilling to let him leave easily. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham can convince them with a lucrative proposal.

The report further states that the midfielder has all the attributes to develop into a “real top-class player” in future. The 21-year-old is already an important player for Palace and he has the quality to succeed at a big club. He will want to compete at the highest level and fight for trophies and Spurs might be able to provide him with that platform in the near future.

They need more defensive steel and work rate in the midfield and Wharton seems like the ideal acquisition on paper. They could nurture the 21-year-old into a future star. He is highly rated across England and he has a bright future. He has been linked with multiple other clubs, and Tottenham should look to act quickly if they want to get the deal done.

They need more quality and depth in the midfield, and the Crystal Palace star could improve them immensely. He is only going to improve with coaching and experience, and he could develop into a superstar for Tottenham.

It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can convince the Eagles to sell the player at the end of the season.
