Adam Wharton next club odds: Chelsea overtake Liverpool in race for Crystal Palace star

Jul 8, 2026 - 11:15

Adam Wharton has become a prime target as the Crystal Palace midfielder has consistently impressed with his performances in the Premier League.

As such, Wharton is looking likely to depart the south London club this summer, having also helped his club win the European Conference League to boost his chances of a big deal.

Palace’s star is set to be worth around £80million and he’s long been rumoured to have interest from both Liverpool and Manchester United.

Liverpool were said to have joined the race to sign the 22-year-old back in April.

But Palace have now set a £100million price tag with a whole host of Premier League clubs looking to sign him.

That price is part and parcel of signing an English midfielder who has still yet to reach their peak, which means he could fetch much more in years to come with the right progression.

Clubs will be paying for that premium that has long been set on English talent, especially on those that could give years of top-class consistency.

Liverpool were favourites at 2/1 clear ahead of the rest of their rivals at the start of June.

But Chelsea have become the new favourites with the Reds drifting in the odds and the Blues looking to takeover the transfer in what could be a very busy summer at Stamford Bridge.

Xabi Alonso officially started as manager of Chelsea at the start of the month and they are already into 6/4 to sign Wharton in the summer transfer window up until September’s transfer deadline day.

Tottenham have already started the process of changing things at the club in order to fix their successive 17th place finishes in the last two seasons.

They do not want a repeat of a relegation fight so could be busy this summer strengthening and reshuffling their squad to be ready to go again in August.

The 2026/27 season is set to start on Saturday August 22, kicking off one week later than the previous season, but the transfer deadline day remains the same.
