Manchester United is reportedly set to make a £60 million offer for Crystal Palace’s key player Adam Wharton, with club representatives feeling that this proposal might convince the Eagles to let their prized midfielder go.

Although strengthening the midfield was a key focus during last summer’s transfer window, the Red Devils failed to enhance their squad. Nevertheless, they intend to address this issue before the next season begins, as Ruben Amorim’s favored pair of Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes have come under scrutiny this season.

Amorim has been closely observing Wharton’s progress at Selhurst Park and is reportedly a big fan of the midfielder. The Portuguese manager thinks that the talented 21-year-old has the technical abilities needed to thrive at United.

It is reported that both Kobbie Mainoo and Casemiro may leave Old Trafford. Mainoo has not started a Premier League game this season and might move to Napoli on a loan deal in January, whereas Casemiro’s contract will end next year.

Wharton has become one of the most in-demand players in the Premier League due to his rapid ascent over the last two years. The Manchester United target gained recognition at Blackburn before moving to Crystal Palace for £18 million from the Lancashire club in February 2024, according to the Mirror.

He quickly adjusted to the Premier League and made it into Gareth Southgate’s team for the Euros that summer. The midfield expert has emerged as a vital player under Oliver Glasner at Palace, contributing to the team’s FA Cup victory and earning a position in European competition.

Manchester United spent £200 million on their attacking squad this summer, signing Benjamin Sesko, Bryan Mbeumo, and Matheus Cunha to tackle their goal-scoring issues. They are now working to persuade Palace to let their top player go, having already shown interest in him back in August.

The Eagles have demonstrated willingness to sell their star players if the right offer comes along. During the summer, they allowed Eberechi Eze to join Arsenal for £67.5 million, and previously, Michael Olise moved to Bayern Munich a year ago.
