Real Madrid has been following Adam Wharton, a Crystal Palace player, for some time. The midfielder is one of the Premier League's greatest talents, and many believe he is going to be one of the best in the world in the future.

He has a contract in force until 2029, but everything suggests that he will leave much earlier in search of a new stage in his career. According to CaughtOffside, an English news portal, they will ask for €150 million ($150 million) for his services, a figure that seems excessive for the white club. Nevertheless, at Valdebebas, they are not going to stop following him.

He is only 21 years old and has a career ahead of him that could be spectacular. He even has a profile that perfectly fits the signing policy that has been carried out at the white house for several seasons. He is young and has a potential that could be game-changing.

Some even believe that he could be a footballer similar to Jude Bellingham. With the former Borussia Dortmund player, Florentino Pérez gave the green light to pay €100 million ($100 million). The president was at all times advised by Juni Calafat, the club's chief scout and one of the people he trusts. 

Therefore, his opinion on the matter will not go unnoticed at any time. According to our colleagues at Defensa Central, the offices at Bernabéu will keep an eye on Adam Wharton's performance during the current season. If he performs notably, it is likely that he could be one of the great "bombs" of next summer.

Many offers

As usually happens in these situations, several clubs have already set their sights on him. In fact, the Premier League giants have shown interest in signing him, and the top brass at Chamartín are aware. However, if he wants to join Bernabéu, he will have to do his part to make it happen.

The reason is that it is hard to believe that Florentino will be willing to enter a bidding war for him. Already this summer, he stayed at Crystal Palace, but it seems like a "miracle" that he will do so for a second consecutive summer. Meanwhile, the eagles are asking for €150 million ($150 million), and in a year, they expect a team to put that amount on the table.
